Remember each category by how the conclusion is established:
Ibarat: the ruling directly intended in the speech—provision in the nursing verse.
Isharah: an incidentally indicated consequence—paternal attribution.
Dalalah: extension through an immediately understood linguistic rationale—prohibiting more severe harm to parents.
Iqtida: the indispensable implicit element—an omitted legal consequence in the error-and-forgetfulness expression.
Classifying a ruling’s textual pathway is part of understanding its argument, not merely memorising its result.
