Fiqh
The rulings of worship and daily life
Fiqh is knowledge of practical rulings derived from the detailed evidences of the Shari‘ah. The correct manner of prayer, fasting, purification, zakat, transactions and family matters is known through it.
فَلَوْلَا نَفَرَ مِن كُلِّ فِرْقَةٍ مِّنْهُمْ طَائِفَةٌ لِّيَتَفَقَّهُوا فِي الدِّينِ
Why should not a party from every group among them go forth to gain understanding of the religion and warn their people when they return to them?
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
مَنْ يُرِدِ اللَّهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ
Whoever Allah intends good for, He grants him understanding of the religion.
