Question 30 NECO • 2018 • ISLAMIC_RELIGIOUS_STUDIES • objective

When a rebellion broke out in Kufa during the caliphate of Ali, he chose to first send envoys to negotiate and, after consulting his senior companions, decided to confront the rebels only if they refused dialogue. Which principle of Islamic governance does Ali's approach exemplify, and why is this principle important in resolving conflicts?

Answer Options

A. Khilafah (succession); because it emphasizes leadership authority, which may bypass collective deliberation in conflict resolution
B. Qiyas (analogy); because it applies precedent to new cases, which aids legal reasoning but does not involve consultation among companions
Correct Answer C. Shura (consultation); because it ensures collective decision‑making, promotes justice and prevents unilateral actions in conflict resolution
D. Ijtihad (independent reasoning); because it allows individual scholars to interpret law, fostering flexibility but not necessarily collective decision‑making in conflicts
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Shura (consultation); because it ensures collective decision‑making, promotes justice and prevents unilateral actions in conflict resolution
