The Change of Time and Place and Its Impact on the Change of Fatwa

This study is concerned with a contemporary, applied, and fundamental investigation of the issue of fatwa change and its impact on the change of time and place, with the assertion that Islamic jurisprudence is not rigid on the transmitted and that this change occurs on rulings based on diligent principles. Following the definition of the rules and grounds for this shift, we will analyze what the word “change of time and place” means and how it affects the fatwa, using examples from current culture. The researcher used an inductive-deductive approach to write the research. And reached various conclusions and recommendations, the most essential of which are that the change in the fatwa has controls that must serve the legislative aims and the interests of the people, so it is not governed by whims and does not diverge from what the legislator intends. Similarly, the revision in the fatwa has a lawful basis, because the judgement would have required suffering and harm to people, and the ruling would have broken Sharia laws that are based on mitigation, facilitation, and warding off harm and corruption.
