Getting to know some of the Activities of the Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence

Authority of the words of a reliable person in subjects.&nbsp;Based on the principle, the words (transmitted by) a reliable person in subjects (is considered) reliable and the evidence for this is as follows:&nbsp;- The way of the reasonable people is that they trust the word (transmitted by) a reliable person and on this basis the Usooliyeen (those who follow the Usooli school) consider a Khabar e Wahid in rulings and hadith to be reliable. The rational people, in the issue of transmission of narrations from the Infallibles, for reliabile transmission to account for a ruling or a general law, do not believe in topicality rather the ways of the rational people is reliability of a narration in loco transmission of a hadith. A point is that it indicates to a subject from external subjects, which is the sayings of an Infallible Imam, and this transmission of the words of an Infallible, if it is proven to the religious people, it bears the religious effects and responsibilities. Therefore, the rational people consider the words of a reliable person in subject to be reliable.&nbsp;- Some of the texts and narrations consider relying on narrations (transmitted from) reliable and just person to be permission.&nbsp;- Narrations which infer to the validity of testimony, the absoluteness of these narrations also includes the testimony of a single just (person) in subject matters. One of these is the reliable narration of 'Abdallah bin Mughayra who says:قَالَ كُلُّ مَنْ وُلِدَ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ وعُرِفَ بِالصَّلَاحِ فِي نَفْسِهِ جَازَتْ شَهَادَتُهُThe generality of these narrations includes narrations (transmitted) by a reliable person in subject matters.&nbsp;The lexical meaning of 'Bayyinah' (evidence) is not limited to the testimony of two just people rather includes the testimony of a single just person although in some instances such as the Chapter of Judgeship (قضا), there is specific evidence that testimony should be from two just people however in other instances to the evidence criterion, the evidence of a single just person is reliable.&nbsp;Example: In proving one doubtful relation, if the claimant and defendant are in between, it is given over to the chapter of judgeship and the technical evidence (of two testimonies) must be brought forward however if it is not in the chapter of judgeship for example, they wish to divide inheritance in a family and a person says 'I am a child of the deceased' and he brings forward one witness (like a neighbour who has information of the deceased's affairs), here the technical meaning of evidence does not apply however should this testimony be heard? Or is the number of witnesses valid?&nbsp;It has been claimed that some narrations consider valid the number of witnesses in the subject matters however the inference of those narrations on the claimant is not clear.&nbsp;Some chapters have been excluded from this ruling and Khabar e Wahid is not sufficient in them such as&nbsp;1) Chapter of Judgeship2) Chapter of Punishment3) Chapter on Moon sighting&nbsp;&nbsp;Reasons cited for the authority (Hujjiyat) of a Khabar e Wahid (single transmission) in subjects includes the opinion (derived from a) laboratory (examination) and single reliable word which are based on sensory preliminaries.&nbsp;Authority of laboratory opinions based on an estimate preliminary.&nbsp;Are views by a laboratory, which is based on certainty and extracted from an estimate preliminary an authority?&nbsp;Point 1: If the view of the specialist and experimenter is based on speculation, it will not have reliability.&nbsp;Point 2: An estimated matter is one whereby its discernment is not possible based on sensory preliminaries and in these cases, the word of the experts is authority.&nbsp;Point 3: (Matters with) Estimate preliminaries are preliminaries whereby there will be no one result for all and the conclusions that different specialists derive from those preliminaries will be different.&nbsp;Validity of views by specialists which are based on estimate preliminaries will not be (considered) a Khabar and the evidence of Hujjiyat Khabar (Authority of the word) will not include it rather its authority is from the authority of the word of the experts.&nbsp;In and of itself there is no dispute in the authority of the word of the experts and evidence for it are as follows:&nbsp;- 'Ijma (consensus): It is not far-fetched that in the issue of validity of the word of the experts, consensus is realized.&nbsp;- Verses: Some of the verses which support the validity of the word of the experts are:&nbsp;فَاسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ»1)&nbsp;&nbsp;. «قَالَ اجْعَلْنِي عَلَى خَزَائِنِ الْأَرْضِ إِنِّي حَفِيظٌ عَلِيمٌ»2)&nbsp;&nbsp;- Narrations: Some of the narrations infer to the validity of the word of the experts such as:&nbsp;&nbsp; - Narrations in the chapter of breastfeeding&nbsp; - Narrations in the chapter of crimes (where the value of blood money is not specified, and I've must refer to the experts)&nbsp; - Narrations in the chapter of loss, damage was guarantee&nbsp; - Narrations in the chapter of determining the boundaries of places&nbsp; - Narrations inferring to the validity of the adhan of a muazin who not famous and other narrations is.&nbsp;- Ways of the rational people&nbsp;Ways and evidence of the rational people in referring to the experts is present certainly in the time of the Imams and the rational people referred to the experts.&nbsp;Even if we say that we do not have certainty and we have doubt whether in the time of the Imam such a way existed of not, using the principle of Asalat al Thubat, we prove the presence of such a way in the time of the Imam.There is no refutation to referring to the experts in any of the texts even if it be weak.&nbsp;Authority of the words of the experts is on what conditions?&nbsp;Following the way of the rational people in the validity of the word of the experts is strong evidence and neither is there a refutation regarding the principle of its validity nor a refutation regarding is applicability and the condition of evidence (bayyinah) in the words of the experts is not reliable rather one trustworthiness (reliability) is valid in it meaning the expert much be reliable and trustworthy.&nbsp;And the word of a single reliable person in estimate (حدسیات) is authority just as the word of a single reliable person in sensory (حسیات) is an authority. The authority of the word of the experts is not subject to reliability and certainty.&nbsp;The conclusion being if a specialist and experimenter is reliable, his views and opinions are valid and there is no requirement for several experimenters, and it is not necessary for reliability and certainty to be gained from his word.

In this article, some of the discussions and opinions of Ustad Muhammad Qaeni in Advance Level Medical Jurisprudence will be propounded upon.

The Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence

According to the news agency of the seminary, Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi, the Grand Marja of the Shia, deemed it necessary to pay deep attention to the subjects in of contemporary jurisprudence.

He made the request in a meeting with the heads of the seminaries and the contemporary jurisprudence department while praising their accomplishments in the field. He emphasized the importance of focusing on the depth of the subjects and ensuring a strong intellectual role the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence should play.

At the beginning of the meeting, Ayatollah Arafi expressed gratitude to Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi for his support, discussed seminary administration and programs, and highlighted the initiatives and publications of the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence.

He emphasized the importance of thorough 5-year planning for significant tasks, including the activities of the Office of Contemporary Jurisprudence. The focus is on advanced lessons rooted in seminary methodology, avoiding pseudo-enlightenment ideas, and relying on independent seminary principles. The institute collaborates with seminary and university teachers to analyze subjects jurisprudentially. This year, a 9-volume book on ijtihad in contemporary jurisprudence has been published, with plans for an equal number of new books next year.

The head of Iran&#39;s Islamic seminary highlighted the collaborative effort behind the book Al-Fā&rsquo;iq and its commentary, authored with the support of renowned advanced jurisprudence teachers. He emphasized that this book, as a supplement to Kifāyah, has sparked intellectual growth in the seminary. He also noted that future publications will be added to the seminary education system which will complement Makāsib in subjects such as &#39;legal entity.&#39;

Identifying and publishing books which in the last 100 years have been authored in Najaf and Qom on contemporary subject was a project he considered one of the other tasks of Contemporary Jurisprudence Office in the next year.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Ayatollah Arafi noted: &quot;We have contacted different Government bodies and have collected their issues and principle needs and formed more than 20 intellectual committees with the respected research executive Hujjatul Islām wa al-Muslimīn Muqīmī Ḥājī.&quot;

He stated that students, teachers, and seminary centers conducting strategic research aligned with announced guidelines to address societal issues will receive support, adding that over 100 projects have already commenced and are set to be published by next year.

<a name="_Hlk193138132"></a> Rapid Growth in Seminary Lessons

Hujjat al-Islam wa al-Muslimīn Esna Ashari, head of the Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence of the seminary, for his part said: &lsquo;Although these lessons began in the second half of the seminary school year, 72 teachers and more than 1000 students participated in these lessons and it is anticipated that this number will be doubled in the next year.

With over 200 teachers, around 4,800 students are enrolled in advanced contemporary jurisprudence lessons, and 2,500 in Al-Fā&rsquo;iq courses, he reported and said the figures reflect 45% of high-level students&#39; engagement with contemporary issues in some capacity.

Hujjat al-Islam wa al-Muslimīn Esna Ashari added: &quot;At higher levels, students and teachers not only teach and study but also research new lessons alongside traditional seminary subjects. This allows them to grasp traditional principles of ijtihad while exploring its application to contemporary issues.&quot;

The office of contemporary jurisprudence highlighted the popularity of introductory books in this semester, including &#39;Usury and Islamic Banking&#39; and &#39;Analysis of Methods to Elude Usury&#39; by Ayatollah Makarem, &#39;Governance in Islam by Ayatollah Khalkhālī, &#39;Our Economics&#39; by Shahīd Ṣadr, &#39;Jurisprudence of Guardianship and Governance&#39; by Ayatollah Maẓāherī, and Fiqh of Cryptocurrencies by Ayatollah Sayyed Mohammad Reza Modaressi.

Seminary Initiatives Essential in Jurisprudence Development 

During the meeting held at Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi&#39;s residence, he highlighted the growing interest in jurisprudence and its principles within the seminaries, emphasizing their foundational role in religious rulings. He acknowledged the significant initiatives in this field, praising them as important steps in the right direction.

He highlighted subjectology examples, emphasizing the need for precise analysis of money, its origins, and generation within the complexities of the modern global economic system.

He argued that topics of cryptocurrencies, their classification as money or commodities, and the analysis of various company forms and investment types require precise scrutiny.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&quot;Additionally, the foundational rulings on these subjects must be clarified. The issue of loans, borrowing, and the disapproval of such practices, as noted in Imam Khomeini&#39;s writings, is another critical matter that demands serious attention and action,&quot; the Grand Marja said.

Hujjat al-Islam Esna Ashari reported an extensive seminary-university team being established from different scientific fields and serious attention is being given to interdisciplinary research and different thematic aspects such as money. Likewise, opinions of legislative groups are being taken into account and lengthy periods are being dedicated to thematic while sometimes last over a year.

At the end, the Ayatollah demanded the abstracts and conclusions of teachers&#39; intellectual works on cryptocurrencies and other publications to be sent to him for a review.

Approximately 20 days ago, the office of contemporary jurisprudence launched a general call for seminary and university thinkers to assist in the critique of the recommendations draft.&nbsp;A number of respected seminary teachers and researchers of jurisprudence, ethics, philosophy, law and artificial intelligence announced their readiness in this regard and through their concise and accurate work, in addition to the fundamental and formative critiques, we were able to present strategic&nbsp;and appropriate legislative recommendations.&nbsp;Ayatullah Arafi as well, like always, with support, backing and quick measures, delivered the prepared document to President Raisi thus it may be used by the present Iranian delegation in the meetings, so we do not encounter similar issues like the 2030 document (UNESCO’s Sustainable development goals).&nbsp;In this relation, we announce our many thanks and appreciation to all the dear teachers and researchers.&nbsp;At present, we are awaiting the final UNESCO document in ethics of artificial intelligence. Thereafter, the existing critique overseeing the draft will be amended and completed with the co-operation of the authors in relation to the text of the approved draft and will be publicly released in a book independent from the series of artificial intelligence books.&nbsp;

UNESCO, after two years of work and three amendments, at the end of the current year published the final draft of artificial intelligence ethics document and intends deliver this document in Paris for the approval of Member states on the 41st meeting in Āban 1400 (October 2021).
