Abstract:
Talfiq (integration) is defined as a combination of the different views of religious scholars which is not fully consistent with the exact views of any of them. It is aimed at facilitating religious assignments. Therefore, Talfiq enjoy commonalities with Taysir (facilitation) as a tenet in Islamic tradition and under rules such “removal of constrictions” and the “Yosr rule”. On the other hand, however, Talfiq may take place to relieve the religious obligations of an obligated person or actually lead to such a thing. .Some religious scholars believe that integration over a Fatwa is allowed in case of necessity since it leads to openings as well as removal of constrictions. Others have considered a wider application for Talfiq, arguing that it is allowed not only when necessary, but also when needed. It is evidenced upon Taysir (facilitation) and removal of constriction that could be applied to the relevant obligator. It seems that Taysir and Talfiq overlap each other, because every case of Talfiq is not necessarily considered as Taysir, and every case of Taysir is not necessarily categorized under Talfiq, although all cases of Talfiq ensure Tatsir in practice and especially in contemporary Fatwas.
Machine summary:
Some jurists and legal theorists believe that Talfeeq of a fatwa in a state of necessity is permissible due to the relief and removal of hardship it provides for the obligated person (mukallaf).
On the other hand, there are numerous texts in the Holy Quran and the Prophetic Sunnah that indicate the removal of hardship (haraj) from servants in performing religious duties, introducing Islam as a religion of ease and facilitation, and recommending Taysir and consideration for the condition of the mukallafs.
Or, it means reaching a single ruling from among the ijtihads and fatwas of jurists in various legal matters, calamities, and new developments; or being able to perform Talfeeq in the imitation of schools such that the muqallid (follower) can act among the opinions of mujtahids in a way that is based on the opinion of a single imam; or that in the legislation and lawmaking of an Islamic ruler, he can perform a Talfeeq that selects from among the various opinions of the jurists of Islamic schools what is easier, more realistic, more just, and based on the interests of the Islamic Ummah and society and the objectives of Sharia (Maqasid al-Sharia), and turns it into a law or regulation so that it can be easily implemented and practiced by the people, and finally, through Talfeeq fatwa, the hardship (usr) and difficulty (haraj) that exist in various ijtihadi and speculative matters are resolved with ease and relief, so that the obligated individuals (mukallafun) can perform their acts of worship with peace of mind, without anxiety or confusion.
