To the Shabab who have believed in Islaam as an intellectual  Aqeedah from which a system emanates... And who have sought to  be enlightened by its guidance and have made a firm determination to  bring it about within the reality of life... To the generation of  awakening... The generation of revival... The generation of Al Jihaad... This is for you to assist you in making the Usool firmly and deeply  rooted, the thoughts deeper and also as a motivation towards  Ijtihaad....

Al-Waadih Fee Usool ul-Fiqh

The term "Al-Masaalih Al-Mursalah" is a concept in Islamic jurisprudence. The term is derived from two Arabic words, "Al-Maslahah" and "Al-Mursalah".  "Al-Maslahah" linguistically means to rectify, make better, or right. It carries the meaning of As-Salaah (properness/intactness) and the meaning of Al-Manfa’ah (benefit/interest/advantage). The plural of Maslahah is Masaalih hizb.org.uk.  "Al-Mursal" refers to the unrestricted (Mutlaq) without a Qaid (restriction/limitation) or it means a Daleel hizb.org.uk.  In the terminology of Usool ul-Fiqh, "Al-Masaalih Al-Mursalah" is an expression of the description (Wasf) that appears to the Mujtahid to be most likely to bring the Maslahah (benefit/interest) or repel the Madarrah (harm/detriment) when building the Hukm upon that description without the Mujtahid finding from the Shaari’ (Legislator) that which indicates the cancellation of this description or reliance in it hizb.org.uk.  In the application of this concept, the scholars have agreed upon the impossibility of working with Al-Masaalih Al-Mursalah in a matter from the matters of the ‘Ibaadaat (acts of worship) because they have come Tawqeefiy (as they are and without reasoning) from Allah Ta’Aalaa, and defined and specified by the Shar’iyah texts from the Kitaab and the Sunnah hizb.org.uk.  For example, when ‘Umar Ibn Al-Khattaab (ra) was the Khalifah he poured out (emptied) the milk that had been mixed with water to discipline those who were committing this fraud. This fits into the remit of the Maslahah so that they would not cheat the people in this way after that hizb.org.uk.  Another example is the approval of the killing of the group or collective for the murder of one if they participated in his killing because the Maslahah dictated that. That is to prevent two or more to take part in the killing of a single person in an attempt to avoid the Qisaas (law of retribution) hizb.org.uk.  In terms of the basis for this concept, the consideration of the public interest will definitely lead to lifting hardship and burden on mankind. Denying the usage of such source will lead to the passiveness of Shariah and this will lead to inability of resolving and suggesting appropriate solution to many contemporary issues facing the ummah
