Istislah

title: Istislah
text: Istislah is a method employed by Islamic jurists to solve problems that find no clear answer in sacred religious texts. It is related to the term مصلحة Maslaha, or "public interest". Extratextual pragmatic considerations are commonly accepted in Islamic jurisprudence concerning areas where the Qur'an and the practices of the earliest Muslim generations (Salaf) provide no specific guidance. Istislah bears some similarities to the natural law tradition in the West, as exemplified by Thomas Aquinas
