'''Mintaqat al-Farāgh''' (Arabic: [https://ency.feqhemoaser.com/fa/view/%D9%85%D9%86%D8%B7%D9%82%D8%A9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%BA منطقة الفراغ]) is a jurisprudential theory proposed by [[Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr]] in contemporary Shiʿi Islamic law. According to this theory, the Lawgiver grants the ruler of an Islamic society the authority to enact binding regulations in areas that are devoid of obligatory religious rulings, namely within the sphere of legally permissible acts, in order to secure the public interests of governance. The theory aims to provide a framework for harmonizing Islamic law with structural transformations in social life. | '''Mintaqat al-Farāgh''' (in Arabic: [https://ency.feqhemoaser.com/fa/view/%D9%85%D9%86%D8%B7%D9%82%D8%A9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%BA منطقة الفراغ]) is a jurisprudential theory proposed by [[Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr]] in contemporary Shiʿi Islamic law.

Scholars of Islamic jurisprudence describe Mintaqat al-Farāgh as the outcome of a systemic and governmental approach to fiqh. Its significance is commonly attributed to its emphasis on the objectives of the Sharia (*maqāṣid al-sharīʿa*), the universality of Islamic rulings, and its role as a conceptual foundation for legislation in the contemporary era. | Scholars of Islamic jurisprudence describe Mintaqat al-Farāgh as the outcome of a systemic and governmental approach to fiqh.
