The ramifications of Mulla Kashi’s work extend beyond theological discourse into the very fabric of Shia jurisprudence. His innovative interpretations laid the groundwork for subsequent jurists and scholars.
A. Fiqh and Ijtihad
In the realm of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), Mulla Kashi championed the dynamic nature of legal interpretation, known as ijtihad. He maintained that scholars should engage in continuous reinterpretation of legal rulings, thus adapting to the evolving needs of Muslim communities. His assertion that contemporary social realities demand new interpretations has profound implications for modern Shia jurisprudential thought.
