The rule of multiple correct opinions in ijtihad
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, and the best prayers and most complete peace be upon our Master Muhammad, his family and all his companions. And after: There is no doubt that many of the texts mentioned in the two revelations are conjectural in meaning, and perhaps this is one of the most important reasons for the differences in the views of the jurists. Therefore, conjectural meaning is the widest field for ijtihad due to the many different meanings that those conjectural texts can bear. From here, the supremacy of Islamic jurisprudence appears in the multiplicity of opinions of the jurists of the Companions, the Followers and the mujtahid imams based on those multiple meanings. The scholars of the principles of jurisprudence and jurists have researched several issues related to the subject of ijtihad, whether it originated from conjectural meaning or what no text has been mentioned about it at all or there has been no valid consensus on it. Among the issues that were discussed by those distinguished scholars is (the ruling on multiple correctness in ijtihad), as their statements differed in this regard and their points of view and ideas varied. In this research, I shed light on this part and then point out some of the jurisprudential implications resulting from it .
