Objectives: This study highlights Burhan al-Sharia’s careful, concise yet precise style in Al-Wiqaaya, a key text in the school of thought. It then extracts rules on pledge (al-rahn) from the text, clarifies their meanings, supports them with textual and rational evidence, proves them through legal reasoning, and discusses their main applications and exceptions.
Methods: This study relied on an inductive, deductive, and analytical approach to extract the most prominent rules of pledge from Al-Wiqaaya. The second part involved an inductive and analytical method by surveying applications of these rules in the books of the school of thought, uncovering any exceptions if present, and analyzing their relation to the rules.
Results: The study showed that the pledge has specific rules governing most of its rulings. The author’s precise and concise wording made these rules accessible. The study identified twelve jurisprudential rules related to the validity and obligation of the pledge contract, rules concerning the pledge and pledged item, its disposition and preservation, as well as its generation, entitlement, guarantee, and annulment. It also revealed applications of these rules along with any exceptions.
Conclusions: The high importance of this text lies in its precise definition of jurisprudential meanings. This study extracted key rules on the pledge’s validity, disposition, preservation, generation, guarantee, and annulment, which are useful for jurisprudential studies and rulings on contemporary forms of pledge.
