These secondary sources usually include the consensus of the religious scholars embodied in ijma, and analogy from the Quran and Sunnah through Qiyas.

Legal Rulings
The Shariah regulates all human actions and puts them into five categories:
Obligatory actions must be performed and when performed with good intentions are rewarded. Its opposite is the forbidden. Recommended action is that which should be done. Its opposite is the disliked. Permitted action is that which is neither encouraged nor discouraged. Most human actions fall in this last category
12
fard (obligatory), Actions in the fard category are those required of all Muslims. They include the five daily prayers, fasting, articles of faith, obligatory charity, and the hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.
mustahabb (recommended), The recommended, permissible and discouraged categories are drawn largely from accounts of the life of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad. the mustahabb category includes proper behavior in matters such as marriage, funeral rites and family life, as civil law in the West. behavior is not mustahabb can be ruled against by the judge.
13
MUBAH (neutral),
All behavior which is neither discouraged nor recommended, neither forbidden nor required is of the Mubah; it is permissible.
MAKRUH (discouraged),
Makruh behavior, while it is not sinful of itself, is considered undesirable among Muslims. It may also make a Muslim liable to criminal penalties under certain circumstances. Haraam behavior is explicitly forbidden. It is both sinful and criminal. It includes all actions expressly forbidden in the Qur'an. Certain Muslim dietary and clothing restrictions also fall into this category.

The
doors of Ijtihad are closed Individual ijtehad Possible ? The scope includes definitive matters such as the prohibition of Riba (usury) It is the reasoning of an individual and therefore cannot be a shariah rule Ijtehad possible where Islamic evidences have not discussed directly i.e. upon new issues Ijtehad is an individual obligation and therefore Taqleed is prohibited

In the fourth century of Hijrah a person called alQaffal issued a Fatwa closing the door of Ijtihad, thus he was called al-Qaffal which means the one who closes something Imam Ghazali_ freezing Islamic thinking in time During the Mogul invasion. Rulers feared that under pressure of occupation by non-Muslim forces that Ijtihad may lead to misinterpretations Only with security can one tolerate differences. If the self is threatened it clutches to certainties, wants to keep them and builds on them. In times of crises multiplicity of opinion is not encouraged and Ijtihad is endangered.
18
"Ijtihad" constitutes and effort to opt for one of two or more possible solutions in a given situation and to provide legal justification for that solution with legal justification Ijtihad is subjective, it starts with your belief and conscience. Science is objective, it starts with a tabula raza. You start with no basic values
19
In Quran Ijtehad literally means to exert. In the Islamic terminology it means to exert with a view to form an independent judgement on a legal question. It has its origin in the wellknown verse of the Quran And to those who exert we show our path. Ijtehad + consensus = IJMA

Hazrat Ali, when consulted by Caliph Uthman on the punishment which should be meted out to those who drank wine, he advised;
We apply the punishment for calumny, namely eighty lashes of the whip, because if a person becomes intoxicated, he knows not what he says, and in such a condition he commits calumny. Thus, through this analogy, drinking of wine was linked to calumny.
Punishment as prescribed by the Quran for the thief, male or female, is to cut off their hands, but the Caliph Umar suspended it in the year of famine because of necessity and in order that people might keep alive.
21
Caliph Umar , observed the principle of sound analogy (Tawil) in the interpretation of the Quranic verse: Alms are only for the poor and the needy, and those who collect them and for those whose hearts are to be reconciled, and to free the captives and the debtors, and for the cause of Allah and the wayfarer, a duty imposed by God. (9:60) The words, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, refer to a group of weavers who were included among the recipients of the alms. The verse is silent as to the cause why this group was included among the recipients of alms. The sole object was to win them over to the side of Islam on account of their influence and the high esteem in which they were held in their tribe. Caliph Umar refused to give them alms when Islam had gained in strength saying: These were payments from the Prophet (Pbuh) to you in order to win you over for Islam

Imam Abu Hanifa and Abu Yusuf are reported by Ibn Qyyaim al-Jawziah to have said, It is not legitimate for anyone to follow our view until he has learned the source where from we derived those views Imam Mohammad, and Imam Yusuf both students of Imam Hanifa, rejected eighty percent of Ijtehad of their teacher Abu Hanifa in the light of new sources and changed conditions The Fiqh Hanafi as it exists today is based on the Ijtehad of both these students, that is, Imam Yusuf and Imam Mohammad

Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, reputed the most meticulous adherent to the traditions said, Do not imitate me, Malik, AlShafii or alThawri but learn from the source from which they learned.

Interpretation is incumbent upon every man of learning. They also prove that the interpreter is liable to err. Ibn Qayyim writes,
The sharia is all justice, kindness, common good and wisdom. Any rule that departs from justice to injustice ... or departs from common good (Maslaha) to harm (Mafsada) ... is not part of Sharia, even if it is arrived at by literal interpretation

Iqbal_ worldly matters (muamalaat) relate to the rights of the people and are subject to change and modification
King Hussein _(Jordan), "When Ijtihad-the possibility of reconciling faith and present-day life-stopped a long time ago, We need to do whatever we can to repair that mistake."

through agreement of the the people cannot agree on entire community and public at anything erroneous large
Islamic tradition says "Medina through agreement amongst the expels bad people like the residents of Medina, the first furnace expels impurities from Islamic capital iron" they were the most through agreement and practice knowledgeable on religious of Muhammad's Companions matters and rightly guided consensus is not genuinely only the consensus of the ulama binding in its own right, rather of the same period as the it is binding in as much as it is Prophet or Shia Imams is a means of discovering the binding.
