Abstract

I will suffice in this brief reference to one of the topics of the history of Islamic legislation, which is the "legislative status of the Sunnah".
In this reference, I will discuss the most important matters related to this topic. I referred to the meaning, authority and status of the Sunnah in the Noble Qur’an, paving the way for this with a general and short word on the origin of Islamic legislation.
Accordingly, this study consists of a preface and three demands, as follows:
1 - Introduction to the origin of Islamic legislation.
2- The first requirement: on the meaning of the Sunnah.
3- The second requirement: On the authenticity of the Sunnah.
4- The third requirement: On the status of the Sunnah in the Noble Qur’an
