أهل الحل و العقد : دراسة في المفهوم و النشأة و إمكانات التطبيق في العصر الحديث

Abstract EN

This study aims to approach the traditional Islamic concept called "Ahlu al-Hall wa al-A’qd" that may be considered today as members of the parliament by investigating the historical context in terms of origination, revealing its conceptual and contractual foundations and how the nation (Ummah) has been the source of building the concept through the systematic practice of consultancy (Shura).

Besides, in the Islamic historical experience, this concept shows that the idea of representation and deputation have appeared early in the Islamic social and political action.

Furthermore, the study examines the relationship of the concept of "Ahlu al-Hall wa al-A’qd" with the theory of modern political systems and explore the possibility of using it to avoid or reform some of the defects of the modern democratic representation system by proposing an organizational model that reflects the essence of this concept.
