Reader’s Entry Point
This page does not present “abrogation and the abrogated” as a neutral definition or as a general judgment on every meaning of abrogation. The open evidence records a critique of a traditional formulation that Shahrur regarded as a tool for fragmenting the text and discarding some of its implications.
Meaning Supported by the Atoms
The atom abrogation and the abrogated as a tool of fragmentation describes the use of the concept as a means of fragmenting the text and employing it ideologically. The evidence the science of abrogation and the abrogated is an illusion adds a critique of the formulation that became established in the tradition and of its effect in applying rulings outside their proper contexts.
Limits of the Meaning
These pieces of evidence alone do not determine whether Shahrur rejects every possible meaning of abrogation or critiques a specific historical pattern. The page therefore does not attribute to him an alternative definition not stated in the two passages.
