1 – Syarat dan sebab bersepakat dalam hal bahawa kedua-duanya bergantung kepada sesuatu yang lain, di mana perkara itu tidak sempurna atau tidak wujud tanpanya. Walau bagaimanapun, kedua-duanya tidak merupakan sebahagian daripada hakikat perkara atau sesuatu itu.

1 – The Shart and the Sabab agree in respect to each of them both being tied to something else where the matter is not completed or does not come into being without it. That is whilst neither of them represent a part of the reality of that thing or matter.

2 – Sabab berbeza daripada Shart kerana Sabab itu menuntut, dengan kewujudannya, kewujudan perkara tersebut, dan dengan ketiadaannya ia menuntut ketiadaan perkara tersebut. Maka jika berlaku Zawaal matahari, solat Zohor pun wujud; dan jika Zawaal matahari tidak berlaku, maka solat itu tidak wujud.

2 – The Sabab differs from the Shart as the Sabab necessitates from its existence the existence (of the matter) and from its non-existence it dictates the non-existence of the matter. So if the Zawaal of the sun happens the Zhohr prayer comes into being and if the Zawaal of the sun does not take place then the Salaah does not come into being.

Walaupun syarat itu menuntut bahawa ketiadaannya membawa kepada ketiadaan perbuatan (atau perkara), tetapi ia tidak menuntut bahawa kewujudannya membawa kepada kewujudan (perbuatan atau perkara itu). Contohnya, wudhu' ialah syarat bagi solat, maka jika tidak ada wudhu', tidak ada solat; tetapi jika ada wudhu', itu tidak semestinya bermakna akan ada solat (As-Salaah), kerana seorang Muslim boleh berwudhu' tanpa melaksanakan solat dengan wudhu' itu.

This is whilst the Shart necessitates from its absence or non-existence the non-existence of the action (or matter) but it does not necessitate from its existence the existence (of the action or matter). So for example, the Wudoo’ is a Shart in respect to the Salaah and so if there is no Wudoo’ there is no Salaah but if there is Wudoo’ that does not necessitate that there will be prayer (As-Salaah) as a Muslim could make Wudoo’ without performing the prayer with that Wudoo’.

3 – Mereka juga sependapat bahawa kedua-duanya termasuk dalam jenis-jenis Hukm Al-Wad'iy.

3 – They are also in agreement in respect to both of them being from amongst the types of the Hukm Al-Wad’iy.
