LessonsThe Conclusion: Subject, Principles, Problems, and Eight Introductory HeadingsQuiz

فإن كان التسليم على سبيل حسن الظن بمن ألقاه إليه تسمى أصولا موضوعة
If the premise is granted from favorable confidence in the one who presents it, it is called an assumed principle or postulate.

The emphasis is the ground of provisional acceptance: a premise is conceded in the current inquiry even though its full proof has not been reviewed in that setting.

For example, an instructor may proceed from an earlier established result. For the current discussion it functions as a postulated basis, while its independent justification remains a distinct matter.
