Abstract

Islam is a universal religion, the solution to the problems that will come up to the resurrection is in it. Islam is the religion of nature, in which human nature is fully respected and the requirements of humanity are fully respected. Islam has not completely freed or ignored customs and tradition(والعــادة العرف(. Rather, it has limited them and made it easier for people to take advantage of the conveniences and facilities by stating the rules and regulations. No, but it is used as an auxiliary argument. It gives shariah validity to customs and habits, provided that it does not conflict with any shari'a argument. It is the responsibility of the scholars of the Ummah at this time to differentiate between the bad and good customs and traditions of the society, taking into account the requirements of the present age, and to extract the jurisprudential details accordingly, so that the difference between right and wrong can be clear and people can be informed. Ease will also be found. In this research, Urf had been defined and its importance in Islam has been highlighted. Its validity in Islamic jurisprudence has been proved by Quran and Ahadith. Different examples have been given to support the research.
