Ijtihad
Ijtihad (Arabic: اجتهاد, ʼijtihād) is the making of a decision in Islamic law (sharia) by personal effort (jihad), independently of any school (madhhab) of jurisprudence (fiqh). as opposed to taqlid, following the decisions of a religious expert without necessarily examining the scriptural basis or reasoning of that decision.Read more about Ijtihad.
