The second problem is that some people, after independently viewing the laws of the Qur\u2019an and Hadith (with their limited analogy), will begin to deduce underlying factors (‘ilal)<\/em> upon which rulings are based. Thereafter, they will abrogate many laws of Deen<\/em> on the basis that the underlying cause that they deduced no more exists.<\/p>\n

For instance, consider the law of performing wudhu<\/em> before every Salaah<\/em>. In this time and age, a group of modernists hold the view that there is no need to perform wudhu before every Salaah<\/em>, since our limbs are mostly covered and do not get dirty. They contend that the law of wudhu<\/em> was most relevant to the Sahaabah (Radiyallahu Anhum)<\/em>. Many of the Sahaabah (Radiyallahu Anhum)<\/em> were shepherds or worked on the fields and in other outdoor occupations. As a result, their bodies became soiled in dust and dirt. Therefore, they were required to make wudhu for every Salaah<\/em>. Hence, this group of modernists subjected the law of wudhu to their flawed analogy.<\/p>\n

A similar example is that of the law of appointing witnesses at the time of nikaah<\/em>. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam)<\/em> has declared:<\/p>\n

\u0644\u0627 \u0646\u0643\u0627\u062d \u0625\u0644\u0627 \u0628\u0634\u0647\u0648\u062f<\/p>\n

There is no nikaah without witnesses. (Bayhaqi 7\/111)<\/em><\/p>\n

Based on this and other Ahaadith<\/em>, the scholars have unanimously stated that the nikaah<\/em> must be witnessed by at least two people, otherwise it will not be valid.<\/p>\n

Yet, some modernists opine that nikaah <\/em>is valid regardless of whether witnesses are present or not. They comment upon the aforementioned Hadith<\/em> that witnesses were only deemed necessary in the Hadith<\/em> in order to alleviate any misunderstanding or denial if they cropped up later on during the nikaah<\/em>. However, they claim that nowadays the nikaah<\/em> is properly recorded and signed by both parties. Therefore, witnesses are not necessary. Thus, on the basis of their flawed deduction of the reason for having witnesses in a nikaah<\/em>, they cast aside this fundamental shar’ee<\/em> requirement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
