Al-Muhkam shi ne Lafzi (kalma) da ke jagorantar zuwa ma'anar da aka nufa da shi asali, tare da bayyanannen Dalaala wacce ba ta yarda da fassara ba ko kuma soke-soke a lokacin Risaala.

Al-Muhkam is the Lafzh (wording) guiding to the meaning that is intended from it in origin with a clear Dalaalah which is not open to interpretation or abrogation in the time of the Risaalah.

Saboda haka Muhkam shi ne mafi girman matakin bayyana, domin babu wata buɗaɗɗiya (ga canji) a cikinsa, kuma ya fi Mufassar bayyana, domin ba ya karɓar nassaƙi (soke hukunci) a lokacin Risaalah (watau lokacin saukar wahayi).

The Muhkam is therefore of the highest level of clarity because there is no openness (to change) within it and is clearer than the Mufassar because it is not open to being abrogated in the time of the Risaalah (i.e. time of revelation).

Example:

Allah (SWT) ya ce:

Allah (swt) said:

Allah Ta'ala ya ce:

And Allah Ta’Aalaa said:

Ma'anonin da aka ambata a cikin waɗannan ayoyi biyu ba su da yuwuwar ta'wili (fassara ta hanyar karkatarwa) kuma ba sa yuwuwar naskh (soke hukunci). Wannan nau'i ana kiransa 'Muhkam Li'Ainihi' (Muhkam a kansa), kuma shi ne abin da ake nufi a nan.

These meanings mentioned in these two Aayah are not open to Ta’weel (interpretation) and are not open to Naskh (abrogation). This type is called ‘Muhkam Li’Ainihi’ (Muhkam in itself) and this is what is intended here.

1 – Wajibi ne a yi aiki bisa abin da ya shiryar da shi tabbatacce (Qat'an).

1 – It is obligatory to work (act) in accordance to what it guides to definitely (Qat’an).

2 – Yana daga cikin mafi girman matakan bayyana ma'anoni dangane da Al-Alfaazh na Nusoos (kalmomin da aka yi amfani da su a cikin nassosi).

2 – It is from the highest level of clarity in respect to the Alfaazh of the Nusoos (worded expressions of the texts).

3 – Yana gaba (ana fifita shi) akan dukkan sauran nassoshi bayyanannu a lokacin rikici.

3 – It is put ahead (advanced) over all of the other clear texts at the time of conflict.
