LessonsAuthority of Qiyas and Five Conditions for Sound AnalogyQuiz

أن لا يكون في مقابلة النص
The analogy must not stand in opposition to an applicable text.

A text is opposed when it establishes a rule for a case, yet someone uses resemblance to another case to produce the contrary rule. Because the text is a higher legal proof, analogy cannot overrule it.

The jurist must also determine the text's precise subject. When a ruling is linked to a specific condition, one must ask whether that condition is present in the new case. Calling another action 'more serious' does not automatically transplant the original textual consequence.
