Understanding the Application of Law and Wisdom
The application of the law of Allah should be done with wisdom and understanding, as shown by examples from the Prophet's time. Emphasizing wisdom, the Quran mentions instances where prophets and even non-prophets were given wisdom by Allah. Wisdom complements the law, representing the spirit of the law in contrast to the letter of the law. This distinction is crucial for a deeper understanding and practical application of laws, as demonstrated by the story of Jesus being taught both the book (Torah - laws) and the wisdom (in jin - spirit of the law). By comprehending and applying the spirit of the law with wisdom, one can ensure a holistic and meaningful interpretation of laws and regulations.
