Rajih (lenye uzito zaidi au lenye nguvu zaidi) ni maoni ya kundi la kwanza, wanaosema kwamba Al-Istishaab ni Hujjah katika hali ya kukanusha na katika hali ya kuthibitisha. Kwa hiyo, kile ambacho Shari'a imeonyesha kuwa kimethibitika kinabaki hivyo mradi hakuna Daleel iliyotajwa inayokanusha hilo. Vile vile, kile ambacho Shari'a imeweka kuwa hakipo kinabaki kisichokuwepo mradi hakuna Daleel inayothibitisha au kuthibitisha kuwepo kwake.

The Raajih (the outweighing or stronger) view is the opinion of the first group who state that Al-Istishaab is a Hujjah in the case or situation of negation and the case of affirmation. Therefore, that which the Shar’a has indicated to be affirmed remains so as long as there is no Daleel that has been mentioned that negates it. Similarly, that which the Shar’a has established to not be present remains non- existent as long as there is no Daleel to establish or affirm its existence.
