This page gathers the main pathways associated with the concept of «muḥkam» within the atlas: the shared entry, the lexicon, places where it appears in the books, the verses, the relations, and nearby claims.

Direct answer

The muḥkam is linked to the Mother of the Book and to the domain of ijtihad and elaboration. It is not a general title for clarity, but an entry into the muḥkamat verses and what is connected to them in legislation and contextual elaboration. The links clarify the difference between the muḥkam and the mutashābih, and between the muḥkam and elaboration, with a critique of juristic analogy present in Qur’anic narrative.

Concept keys

  • Ijtihad pertains to the muḥkamat.
