1) If the Qiyaas is based upon a Qat’iy text and the ‘Illah of the text is Saraahatan or Dalaalatan (explicit or implicit) then in this case the Qiyaas will take precedence over the Khabar Al-Aahaad AzhZhanniy. 2) If the Qiyaas depended upon a Zhanniy Asl (origin) and the ‘Illah was established through Istinbaat (deduction), then in this case the Khabar Al-Aahaad takes precedence over the Qiyaas.

3) In regards to when the Qiyaas is established by a Zhanniy text and the ‘Illah of the text is Zhanniy: In the situation when a conflict or contradiction happens between a Khabar Al-Aahaad and Al-Qiyaas and it is not possible to outweigh one over the other, then, in accordance to his view, the ‘Ulamaa have held a consensus upon giving precedence to the Khabar Al-Aahaad over the Qiyaas.

4) When the ‘Illah is Mustanbatah (deduced) and the Asl (origin) that the Qiyaas is based upon is Qat’iy. In this case a difference of opinion has taken place amongst the ‘Ulamaa in respect to outweighing the Qiyaas over the Khabar Al-Aahaad.

- As-Shaatibiy said in respect to being presented with a conflict between the Qat’iy and the Zhanniy: “The Zhanniy that conflicts with the Qat’iy Asl and is not supported by the Asl Qat’iy is rejected without any problem”.
