Examination of the Concept of Ta‘līl (Causal Inference)
Journal Title: فقه و اصول - Year 2015, Vol 47, Issue 100
Abstract
What is meant by ta‘līl is that if in a reason the cause of the judgment has been mentioned, the denial of the judgment can been concluded from the lack of that judgment; in such a way that from the denial of restriction (ḥaṣr), condition, desired object, etc, the denial of the judgment is necessitated. In this article, the study of this issue is dealt with respect to the viewpoints of the proponents and opponents and a third viewpoint is presented on the basis of distinction between the generality or partiality of topic, both in the enunciated and the concept.
