Rulings and judgments from evidence found in the Shariah and from the consensus of Islamic scholars.
**Shariah comprises of the laws dictated in the Qur’an, the laws revealed to Prophet Mohammed 
, and the laws that are taken from the lifestyle (Sunnah) of Prophet Muhammad .
***Fiqh does not necessarily come directly from the Quran and Sunnah. But it does come indirectly from these sources.
****Fiqh does not override Shariah. Fiqh is used to create laws for matters not specifically addressed by the Shariah.
