Abstract
This article intends to demonstrate the importance of observing the suitability and compatibility of legal provisions in ascertaining their contextual validity. It aims to identify al-ijtihad al-tanzili (viable juristic discretion) as for existing disagreements among legal scholars. It takes into account the ethics of disagreement in the course of their differing juristic deductions. It contends that such differences occur as a result of the practical reasoning among scholars that happened at the level of abstract understanding of the legislated Islamic provisions. In addition, it proposes the use of tahqiq al-manat (legal viability) as an important consideration in legal provisions, the fact that such a terminology corresponds to al-itihad al-tanzili. After all, any discrepancy between a provision and its situation is considered a sin.
