Abstract
Abdul Hamid Abu Sulayman addresses methods of studying and teaching Shariʿah sciences in the Muslim world. He analyzes the historical factors and the methodology that led to a stalemate in the sciences, which led to an interruption of processes of creativity and ijtihad. Abu Sulayman examines methodological reform—which is the core of today's intellectual cause—and issues of educational reform in the Shariʿah sciences. He then explains the scientific methodology of Islamic thought and some of the methodological terms in fiqh and law. He presents ijtihad as a methodological thought endeavor based on a holistic vision. Abu Sulayman calls for reviewing books of fiqh and attempting to reform the philosophy and methodology of education.
