The fourth source of Shariat is Qiuas. New issues will arise in the human society everyday. If the solutions to these issues are found neither in the Holy Quran nor in Sunnah nor in Ijma, these are to be solved in the light of Qiyas. The Hadith related by Hazrat Muaz Ibn Jabal (R) is noteworthy in this regard. Allah’s Prophet (Sm) asked:”what will you do if you don’t find the solution to any issue in Allah’s kitab?”
“then I will follow the Sunnah of the Prophet.”replied hazrat Muaz (R). then the Prophet (Sm) again asked: “if you still don’t find it even in that?” Hazrat Muaz (R) replied : “then I will apply my own consciences and intelligence to take decisions. Then Allah’s prophet (Sm) said: “All praises be to Allah who made the messenger of Allah’s Prophet (Sm) reply in such a way as Allah’s Prophet (Sm) has been pleased. (Admad, Abu dawood, Timizi)
