Audience Q&A — Sharia, Jurisprudence, and Moral Change59:36
Mohammed Hijab
Muslim

“How does Hijab explain legal adaptation in Islam while claiming objective morality?”

Hijab argues Sharia draws from multiple usul sources beyond only Quran/Hadith, including juristic principles around harm and benefit. He says this allows principled adaptation to new circumstances without abandoning objective moral anchors. He distinguishes between immutable foundations and variable rulings within jurisprudential method.
