A lot of what has come in terms of the utilisation of the wording Al-Istihsaan by the Hanafiyah is with the meaning of that which is in opposition to Al-Qiyaas. So they would say: Al-Qiyaas dictates Al-Hazhr (prohibition) but Al-Istihsaan dictates Ibaahah (permissibility). They have made Istihsaan a Daleel Shar’iy that is in opposition to a Daleel Shar’iy like it, represented in Al-Qiyaas.
Some of them said that in the Hanafiyah view Al-Istihsaan represents every Daleel that is contrary to the Qiyaas Azh-Zhaahir (what is apparent or evident).
The Hanafiyah divide Al-Istihsaan into two categories:
1 - Istihsaan Al-Qiyaas. 2 - The Istihsaan caused by the opposition of Qiyaas to other evidences like the Sunnah and Ijmaa’. It is this category that represents the subject area of our study.
