العلامة سالم بن سعيد بكير باغيثان، و منهجيته في الإفتاء من خلال فتاويه المسماة (فتح الإله المنان)‎ د. امين سالم عبدالله بن عثمان

الملخص

Ash-Shaikh, Salim Ben Saeed Bukayier Ba-Ghithan was one among the unique Hadhrami jurisprudential scholars.

He had been described as he was unequaled in comparison to the Shafi'i School's jurisprudential scholars in his era.

He worked hard to seek knowledge.

Therefore, he had been well qualified, and he was selected by his city's scholars to be the first one to chair the Advisory Opinion Council in Tareem.

He followed an unswerved method in his advisory opinion, fatwa.

The most prominent feature of this method was his commitment to advisory opinion, fatwa's principles.

He also adhered to the Shafi'i School while giving the advisory opinion, fatwa, and he hardly ever deviated from it.

He cited jurisprudential laws in his advisory opinion, fatwa taking into account the Sharia, legitimate purposes.

He did not always cite from the Holy Quran and Hadith except in some cases considering that the schools' scholars whom he conveyed their issues efficiently enriched him with evidences and elicitations from the Holy Quran and Hadith.

In order to differentiate between the advisory opinion, fatwa and viewpoints, and in order not to change the advisory opinion, fatwa into teaching, he cared about his era's issues and incidents and answered them.

He was commitment to summarize his advisory opinion, fatwa unless it needed more details and explanations.

He figured out what the schools' scholars did not elicit on account of a reason behind them.

This is called figuring out the Sharia, law rules from the schools scholars' texts and sources.

Additionally, he was scientifically honest to convey others' issues.

Moreover, he politely conversed, discussed and scientifically responded to scholars whose advisory opinion, fatwa disagreed his.
