The chapter undertakes to further establish a natural connection between juridical methodology and Islamic ethics in interpretive jurisprudence. It elaborates juridical theology based on humanity’s equality in decoding the basic moral law infused in human nature through reason. Islamic political theology, with its goal of establishing a just public order, laid the doctrinal groundwork for the Muslim community to work toward reaching a consensus about the need for a peaceful and just relationship with other faith communities on the basis of common human nature under the universal divine law of justice. Nonetheless, even though coercion in the matter of one’s choice of spiritual path was ruled out, the Qur’an did not overlook the necessity of providing some workable principle like universal human nature (fit}ra) to serve as a foundation for what is good and what we ought to do to manage just interhuman relations. |
