What the Evidence Establishes
The supporting material reports a formulation attributing to Shahrur the presentation of a “boundary-based reading of legislation,” qualified by the statement that “some texts set an upper limit.” Thus, this atom establishes only the existence of an upper limit in some texts, not in every legislative text.
Limits of the Inference
The available evidence does not mention the movement of ijtihad within this limit, nor does it establish that the boundary-based reading is an explicit opposite of literal rigidity. These meanings require a specific raw witness from the book before being presented as Shahrur’s own statement.
