[quote]In my humble opinion, Qiyaas is an individual interpretation of a matter, which has not identical but similar explanation in Qur'an and Sunnah. Ijtehaad is an individual interpretation based on a matter , where we have no similar example in Qur'an and Sunnah.

The definition of deen is that it is an " Abad i hidayat" Divine Guidance sent from Allah to the people through His Prophets and messengers.

How can human intellect become a source of religion.It defeats the definition of deen. We can do Qiyaas and Ijtehaad but it may be different for one person and different for other. SO what will remain the authencity of deen. Deen can not be man made.

Ijmmah can be one of the three

1. Ijmmah of ummah that something is from Qur'an

2. Ijmmah that something isfrom Sunnah.

3. Ijmmah that it is neither in Qur'an and Sunnah, but ijmmah on an individual scholars qiyaas or ijtehad.

If ijmmah is on QUr'an then we are agreeing that something is in QUr'an thus the source of religion remains Qur'an and not Ijmmah.

If the ijmmah is that something is from Sunnah then again we are agreeing that the source of religion is sunnah and not Ijmmah.

If the Ijmmah is on a scholar's qiyaas or ijtehaad. Then again it is an individual person's intellect. It cannot be divine guidance from Allah.[/quote]
