Abstract

One of the principles of jurisprudence (fiqh) is the principle of unopposed claimant, which is mentioned in Islamic jurisprudence with the titles of unopposed claimant, uncontested claimant and Ma-la-Yadon–le-Ahaden-Alayh claimant. The importance of jurisprudential principles, especially judicial ones in the field of government jurisprudence is clear to anyone. Therefore, the question of the validity of the unopposed claimant principle and its application from the perspective of Imamiyah jurisprudence is an issue that needs to be explored to the point of answering. Although the above principle has been raised as an issue in the works of most jurists, it is an important jurisprudential principle that many arguments, including news, indicate the validity of the principle and its cases, and it also applies to judgment. This study has been carried out with the aim of identifying the areas of the arguments of the unopposed claimant in case of lack of authority on it and its application from the perspective of Imamiyah and achieving this goal has been made possible by describing and analyzing jurisprudential propositions through collecting library data.
