  • Muneer Ahmed Chief Editor

Abstract

Hazrat Ayesha RA has got supremacy, not only over all the women
and all the wives of the Prophet S.A.W, but also over all the Companions of
the Prophet, except a few ‘prominent seniors’ who were very close to Prophet
S.A.W. According to a Hadith, the Companions of the Prophet S.A.W never
encountered any problem which was not resolved by Hazrat Ayesha RA.
Hazrat Ayesha RA was the most prominent Jurisprudent and the most
knowledgeable personality. She was famous for her authentic opinion in all
matters.
Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair says ‘I never found a person who is better
than Ayesha RA in comprehending the meaning of Holy Quran and in
determining Halaal and Haraam. No one could surpass her in Arabs poetry
and in the knowledge of ‘Family Trees’.
What is special about Hazrat Ayesha RA is that whenever the
Companions of the Prophet S.A.W. faced any complex issue, they referred the
matter to Ayesha RA and she had complete knowledge about that issue.
In this short article, I have discussed the scholarly principles and
jurisprudent views of Hazrat Ayesha RA. The article is divided into three
sections:-
 Concept of Jurisprudence
 Importance of learning the skill of Jurisprudence
 Principles and Views of the Jurisprudence of Hazrat Ayesha RA.
