1 – Maslahah ambayo haina Daleel mahususi (Khaass) kutoka kwenye Shar'a inawakilisha aina fulani ya starehe na matamanio. Al-Ghazaaliy alisema: "Tunajua kwa hakika (Qat'an) kwamba Mwanazuoni hapaswi kuhukumu kwa matamanio yake na hamu yake bila kuzingatia dalili za Adillah (ushahidi). Al-Istihsaan bila kuangalia Adillah za Shar'a ni kutoa hukumu kwa matamanio pekee (au tupu)." Na kuhusu Al-Masaalih Al-Mursalah alisema: "Na ikiwa Shaari' ametoa ushahidi kwa ajili yake, basi ni kama Al-Istihsaan."

1 – The Maslahah that does not have a specific (Khaass) Daleel for it from the Shar’a represents a kind of relish and desire. Al-Ghazaaliy said: “We know definitely (Qat’an) that the ‘Aalim should not judge by his desire and appetite without paying regard to the indications of the Adillah (evidences). Al-Istihsaan without looking into the Adilllah of the Shar’a represents passing a judgement by the desire alone (or purely)” and in respect to Al-Masaalih Al-Mursalah he said: “And if the Shaari’ does provided evidence for it then it is like the Istihsaan”.
