Al-Qawaa’id Al-Fiq’hiyyah or Islamic Legal Maxims are general rules that can be

because it is used as principles / maxims to deduce rules of fiqh.
The 5 branches of Maxims that will be covered are :
- “Acts are judged by the intentions behind them”
- “Hardship begets ease”
- “Certainty is not removed by doubt”
- “There should be neither harming [darar] nor reciprocating harm [diraar].”
