Abstract

Weakening the religion, which means a ruling or behaviour that makes religion look weak and frivolous in the eyes of society’s custom, is one of the titles that after the Islamic revolution was first seriously considered and cited in Imam Khumaynī’s fatwās. Then, in many issues, it is the basis and proof of contemporary fatwās, so that the prohibition of weakening the religion can be mentioned as a principle of jurisprudence. Weakening religion as a secondary has the capacity of planning in the form of a jurisprudential principle. However, not paying attention to the challenging effects of referring to weakening the religion in the process of jurisprudential inference has caused the use of weakening the religion in the process of jurisprudential inference to be accompanied by doubts. Using the descriptive and analytical method, this study aims to correctly explain challenges such as the incompatibility of the principle of weakening the religion with the principle of stability of rulings, or the contradiction of the necessity of firmness in the implementation of religious rules by applying the rule of weakening the religion, and also by the allocation of the majority of the results of the implementation of weakening the religion. With a scientific expression, it proved the non-contradiction of weakening the religion with the mentioned cases.

تحدیات الاستناد إلى وهن الدِّینِ فی عملیة الاستنباط الفقهی

Abstract [العربیة]

وهن الدین، بمعنى الحکم أو السلوک الذی یُظهر الدین والمذهب بمظهر ضعیف وخفیف فی نظر العرف، وهو من العناوین التی حظیت باهتمام جاد واستناد بعد الثورة الإسلامیة فی فتاوى الإمام الخمینی (قدس سره) أولاً، ثم أصبحت مبنىً ومرجعًا للعدید من الفتاوى المعاصرة فی مختلف المسائل، بحیث یمکن اعتبار حرمة وهن الدین قاعدة فقهیة.
یتمتع مفهوم وهن الدین بالعنوان الثانوی ذا إمکانیة طرحه کقاعدة فقهیة، إلا أن عدم مراعاة الآثار المُثیرة للجدل للاستناد على وهن الدین فی عملیة الاستنباط الفقهی، أدى إلى وجود شکوک حول استخدام وهن الدین فی هذا المجال.
یسعى هذا البحث، ومستندا على المنهج الوصفی التحلیلی، بیان التحدیات التی تواجه قاعدة وهن الدین، مثل تعارض هذه القاعدة مع أصل ثبات الأحکام، أو تعارض ضرورة الصرامة فی تنفیذ الأحکام الدینیة باستخدام قاعدة وهن الدین، وکذلک التخصیص الأکثر الناتج عن تطبیق هذه القاعدة. وأن یثبت عدم تعارض قاعدة وهن الدین مع الموارد المذکورة من خلال تقدیم أدلة علمیة.
