An investigation into the jurisprudential rule of the prohibition of aversion to religion Journal Article

Machine summary:

This collection prompted the writer to present the article "Examination of the Jurisprudential Rule of the Prohibition of Repelling People from Religion" to the collection intended to commemorate the professor; so that a step is taken towards rule-orientation and a rule is discussed whose attention to content and dimensions can open new horizons for us in the derivation and implementation of Islamic rulings, and consequently, I may simultaneously take a step toward two of the professor's great ideals. The rule of the prohibition of causing aversion to religion also has a clear relationship with some instances and types of "taqiyya"; because although the primary goal of legislating the permissibility or obligation of taqiyya is to repel harm from the life, property, honor, and even the assets of Muslims, to the extent that it has been said: "Indeed, taqiyya has been legislated for the preservation of lives",13 but it can be well inferred from the narrations of the chapter on taqiyya that a type of taqiyya is precisely for preserving the sanctity and greatness of religion and preventing its weakness and frailty. In short, whenever by the command of reason, the Prophet (PBUH) and consequently the Imam (AS) must be far from any kind of repulsive attribute, then a fortiori, if the implementation of a ruling from the laws of Sharia necessitates people turning away from the essence of religion and faith, the Wise Legislator will not only not insist on its implementation, but will not be satisfied with its implementation either.
