APPENDIX 1 ABROGATION.
Abrogation is defined by the scholars of usool as the total
suspension of a law by a law revealed later on in time.
Abrogation only occurred in the time of the prophet(pbuh) and ceased
to occur after his death.
Example the hadith of the prophet (pbuh):
ةﺮﺧﻵﺎﺑ ﻢآﺮآﺬﺗ ﺎﻬﻧﺈﻓ ﺎهوروﺰﻓ ﻻ أ , رﻮﺒﻘﻟا ةرﺎﻳز ﻦﻋ ﻢﻜﺘﻴﻬﻧ ﺖﻨآ
“ I used to forbid you from visiting the graves, nay visit them for it will
remind you of the hereafter”.
This is called a clear abrogation.
It contains a clear indication that the action was once forbidden, by the
use of the words “I used to forbid you.”
It also contains a clear indication that it is now allowed, by the use of
the words “ visit them”
I intend to show (insha Allah) that the command of the prophet (pbuh)
not to fight, whilst he was in mecca has been abrogated, and replaced
by the order to fight. So if we find ourselves in a similar situation as
the prophet was in Mecca, we would be obliged to fight in order to
make the sovereignty for Allah alone. Thus there is no basis for saying
jihad cannot be used to establish the Islamic state.
In order for us to get to our intended goal we need to first understand
the following points;
1) What type of fighting was forbidden for the muslims in mecca?
2) What are the supposed abrogating verse ?
3) What is the proof of it abrogating the previous verse ?
