Abstract

This research paper aims to study the most important usuli sources that are appropriate to use in the area of the jurisprudence of Muslim minorities with a clarification of their legal proves, arrangement and applications. It also reveals the usuli sources that are not used in this particular kind of jurisprudence, whether they are used in the general Islamic jurisprudence or not. The researcher uses the inductive and analytical methods.  The most important result that he has reached is that the "custom" is one of the most important usuli sources on which the jurisprudence of Muslim minorities should be built, and this source comes before the "qiyas" (analogical reasoning) and the "istihsan".

Keywords: Usuli Sources, Jurisprudence of Muslim Minorities, the Holy Qur’an, Prophetic Sunnah, Custom, Jurisprudential Applications
