Istihsan __socratesPageHistoryEdit Visual Text ISTIHSAN استحسان Lit. "Approving." A term used in the exegesis of the Qur'an and of the Hadis. It implies the rejection of Qiyas [QIYAS], and the admission of the law of expediency. For example, it is a law of Islam that everything that is washed must be squeezed like a cloth; but, as it is impossible to squeeze a vessel, it is evident that it must be cleansed without squeezing. (Nuru ‘l-Anwar, p. 206.) Based on <a href="https://www.juancole.com/library/dictionary-of-islam-hughes">Hughes, Dictionary of Islam</a> CancelTweetShareRedditEmail
