[QUOTE]Originally posted by *Dalia*: [QB] [b] Wisdom and Islam[/b] Understanding al-Hikmah is to comprehend much of the essence of Islam. Al-Hikmah is a universal tool that can be applied to any situation or matter to produce sound judgments and sound results. The Holy Qur'an provides supreme guidance to Muslims. Some of the guidance is specific while others are general in nature. Not every detail of life was specifically addressed in the Holy Qur'an or the Sunnah (tradition) of Prophet Muhammad (p). The Qur'an and the Sunnah cannot possibly address every issue with its various circumstance for all times, all people and all places. Today there are many things that did not exist at the time of the Prophet, as will be in the future. Al-Hikmah, in this case, can be used to answer many of the questions and concerns regarding these matters and the religious opinions for them. To fully understand this concept, let us examine the definition of al-Hikmah, and then move on to apply it to a particular case. Some scholars interpret the word 'hikmah' in verse 2:129 above as the Tradition or Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (p). Imam Shafi'i defines al-Hikmah in this way. Other scholars, such as the great Muslim scholar Ibn al-Qay'im al-Jawziyah explained in his book Madarij al-Salikeen, 'hikmah' can be defined scientifically and practically as follows: a) Scientific Definition: To Know and understand the genuine nature of matters The knowledge of relating results to causes as relevant to the physical composition Understanding the function of a matter as relevant to Allah's natural law (qadarun), and revealed law (shar'an). b) Practical Definition: Doing what is required in the right manner, at the right time, and in the right place. These definitions express Hikmah's powerful and dynamic mechanisms, which can be applied to any matter, at any time, place and circumstance. According to the scientific definition, the religious decision on a matter is implemented after obtaining full knowledge surrounding the matter in question (qadarun), and by understanding the Islamic jurisprudence (shar'an). When a religious decision regarding a matter is not known, the decision can be found by first, obtaining the natural composition and circumstances of the element in question and second, by simply applying the Islamic grand rule, "harm shall not be caused nor inflected," 'la dhrara wa la dherar.' http://www.islamic-study.org [/QB][/QUOTE]
