The Relationship of the Sunnah and Revelation in the Methodology of Imam Al Shafi’i in İslamic Jurisprudence

Journal Title: Eskiyeni - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 37

Abstract

This article studies on Imam Sâfiî’s arguments about Sunnah of the Prophet. According to his argument, the Sunnah of the Prophet is revelation. He claims that it is Quranic order because the Quran orders the believers to obey the Prophet. The Sunnah of the Prophet explains the Quranic verses with revelation. This is mission of the Sunnah. Apart from that the Sunnah is mentioned in the Quran as “Hikme”, it is revelation. So the Sunnah is revelation. Especially contemporary scholars criticize his argument. We try to answer these critics in this article.
