Generally it is based on two perspectives, objective method (al-manhaj al-maksadi) which is used to understand the text and to derive the fiqhi jugdement. It based on the wisdoms and objectives which are used to understand Islam, and to be practiced in the society based on three factors, current situation, reason and text. These factors are inter-related in a dialectic reaction in order to enjoin the right and avoid the evil. In contrast to the second perspective which has adopted literal method (al-manhaj al-zahiri) to understand the Lord text, which is based on superficial meaning of the texts, neither seeking the reasons of the injunction nor its objectives. It has rejected the using of reason (‘aqal) and satisfied with two factors only, text and current situation. The second is totally directed by the previous which is being understood as a blocked command, without considering the real situation of the society. Furthermore, it exposes the people to the difficulties, problems and loss of interests, all happened by claiming to maintain the injunctions of texts without changing its contents. Some Islamic societies nowadays still depend on this literal approach and considered it correct on Islam in terms of understanding and revelation.otherArticle931541
