The notion of ijtihÉd adopted by MawdËdÊ transcends the confines of Fiqh (jurisprudence) and tends therefore to unleash the dormant faculties of the Muslim mind to excel in all segments of life. 2010 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://irep.iium.edu.my/22737/1/278-279.pdf Haque, Munawar (2010) Sayyid Abul Anlo Mawdodo's views on Ijtihod and their relevance to the contemporary Muslim society.
