끼야스의 개념과 법적 근거 및 현대적 적용 필요성 재론

Rethinking the Concept and Legal Basis of Qiyas, and the Necessity of Its Modern Application

The Sunni jurisprudents agreed that Qiyas is an authoritative source and the proof of legal injunctions. In Arab and European countries, many studies have been done on the Qiyas, but there is little research on Qiyas in Korea. So, this paper first of all synthesizes previous studies in Korea and abroad, and then rearranges the concept and fundamental pillars of Qiyas, various opinions of the jurists about the validity of Qiyas, and the necessity of its application in contemporary time. This paper presents the concepts of Qiyas and its four pillars as follows. Al-Asl is the case referring to a ruling in the original text (Koran or Hadith). Al-Far’ is the case where there is no judgment in the original text and can make the same decision as al-Asl. Al-‘Illah is a legitimate reason or cause for the ruling. Al-Hukm is the decision of al-Asl mentioned in the original text. To sum it up, Qiyas is the decision of the case where there is no judgment in the original case on the original issue of a legitimate reason.
