These fixed principles are based upon justice and the negation of injustice, and are for all times and ages. A faqih uses these principles to deduce the religious laws and rules, and to explicate the Islamic Jurisprudence.
The forward-thinking Shiite faqih, Grand Ayatollah Saanei, too, relying on these principles, a thorough understanding of the traditions (hadiths), rationality, and principles like Human rights and dignity, easiness of Islamic rules, justice and negation of injustice etc., has actualized the comprehensiveness of jurisprudence in responding to the needs of todays world.

In this regard, seeing masculinity as not being a condition for serving as judges, religious jurists, and in other ruling positions, equality between men and women and also between Muslims and non-Muslims in compensation, blood money, and retaliation, considering music as to be generally legal except for the music containing laxity and immorality, establishing the age of puberty for girls as to begin at thirteen lunar years of age (in the absence of the signs of puberty), giving mothers priority over paternal grandfathers in taking custody and guardianship of children in the absence of their fathers, counting all human beings as pure except for obstinate unbelievers who deny the truth despite knowing it, and taking merely the interest paid on depreciation as illegal usury but the one resulting from gainful employment of the principal as legal etc., are all indicative of His Eminences novel way of thinking and are worth mentioning. ]]>Ablutions (Wudhu)http://saanei.xyz/?view=02,01,09,7,02008-10-11T19:41:34+03:302008-10-11T19:41:34+03:302008-10-11T19:41:34+03:302008-10-11T19:41:34+03:302008-10-11T19:41:34+03:30
