Sharia perspective of Limitation in Litigations
In Shariah, litigation is an important part of maintaining justice in society. The limitation in litigation refers to the idea that there are time constraints within which a person can file a legal claim or seek redress. While Islamic law does not explicitly prescribe a uniform statute of limitations as modern legal systems do, the underlying principles of justice, fairness, and accountability guide the approach to time limits in legal matters. In Shariah, the limitation in litigation is primarily concerned with preventing the harm caused by prolonged disputes, ensuring the timely resolution of conflicts, and upholding the integrity of legal processes. While specific time limitations are not always explicitly outlined in classical texts, the guiding principles of justice, equity, and fairness generally allow for judicial discretion in determining the appropriateness of a claim based on its timeliness. As modern Islamic states integrate Sharia principles with national legal systems, clear limitations on various types of litigation are becoming more defined. Still, they continue to be influenced by the foundational goals of preserving justice and social harmony.

The Fact of Disagreement Between the Sayings of the Commentators: An Analytical and Critical Study of the Linguistic Issues through S?rat al-Baqarah

This kind of deliberation indicates a difference of opinion among the commentators in determining the intention and denotation of various words. Therefore, this article presents the nature of these differences and diverse approaches in the light of S?rah al-Baqarah.

Allah Ta'ala has bestowed upon man the title of the best creation and has granted him superiority over all other creatures through knowledge.

An Analytical Study of the Methodology of Authenticating, Weakening, and Implementing Hadiths in "Al-Jami' Al-Kamil fi Al-Hadith Al-Sahih Al-Shamil" by Dr. Zia-ur-Rahman Azmi
The preservation of religion is ensured through the Book of Allah and the Hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), wherein the ummah possesses the hadiths containing Allah’s commands. It is important to note that when Muhadditheen classifies a hadith as authentic, weak, or subject to further analysis, this classification represents not an act of ijtihad, but rather a result of meticulous research and takhrij.

Classifying a hadith as authentic, weak, or subject to further analysis involves research and takhrij, rather than resulting from ijtihad. In light of this, differing opinions can arise, and we will delve into the various factors contributing to these differences in the subsequent discussion.

An Analytical Study of the Differences of the Muhadditheen regarding the Adalat-e-Rawa'at
Fairness and a strong memory are essential for any narrator (narrator) to accept a hadith. Unfair behavior is considered the negation of acceptance of Hadith. The Adil (narrator) is the Ravi who performs his religious rights and responsibilities (duties) and persists in his words, deeds, action and character. He adorns virtues like truthfulness, purity, Murwwat and taqwa (piety) and be avoided polytheism, heresy, innovation, disobedience and immoral acts. In the countless books of Jrah-o-Tadeel and Asool-e-Hadees, Aimah (Jrah-o-Tadeel ) mentioned the causes of Ta’an (Asbab-e-Ta’an) about the fair behavior of the Ravi. If these defects are found, the fairness of Ravi will be trampled and narration (Rawayat) will not be accepted.
