Sharia's Flexible Legal Framework
- The Sharia has stable objectives and principles but a flexible legal framework to adapt to changing customs and realities.
- This flexibility allows the Sharia to remain relevant by applying new rulings to new customs without changing divine principles.
Respect Immutable Islamic Principles
- Do not change immutable Islamic creeds, morals, or fixed instructions, especially in Ibadat.
- Adaptation is allowed mainly in social laws like family law and international relations with qualified scholars guiding changes.
Implement Sharia Gradually
- Apply gradualism in implementing Sharia to ensure societal acceptance and avoid backlash.
- Start with manageable reforms to build toward full compliance instead of imposing all rulings instantaneously.
