أثر المرض في التعليل المقاصدي عند ابن قدامة

الملخص EN

This paper addresses the objective-oriented causation related to illnesses according to Imam Ibn Qudamah Almaqdisi.

It contains a preface and two sections.

In the preface, the researcher gave a short bio of Ibn Qudamah for his popularity.

Then he explained the types of illness according to Ibn Qudamah’s classification, while supporting his description with examples from the advanced science of health and medicine today.

The author mentioned a text by Imam Ibn Qudamah about the distinction between the objective-oriented and standard causation.

In Section One, the author cited Ibn Qudamah’s texts about the elimination of harm which is a legal objective such as applying dry ablution (tayamum) to avoid harming oneself, worsening of illness, late recovery, extended illness, or affecting the wellbeing of the person.

The author discussed the effect of illness in alleviating harm from others, represented in the right of terminating a contract for instance.

Then the section ends with some objective-oriented conditions expressed by Ibn Qudamah.

In section two, the author addressed the effect of illness on legal alleviations, like the shar’i concessions, combining prayers delayed or in advance, calling off an obligatory principle such as leaving out Friday and congregational prayers for the sick and the like.

The author concluded that Imam Ibn Qudamah employed the objective-oriented approach in many precepts for the causes of illness, alleviation of harm, and concession for the legally responsible person.

Finally, the author listed a number of recommendations, including consideration of the objective oriented causation in Islamic Fiqh when teaching the jurists’ Islamic legal approaches.
