The development of the judiciary during the era of Othman bin Affan, may God be pleased with him, between text and reality - An inductive and analytical study-

Abstract

In this article, we will shed light on the development of the judicial authority during the era of the Rightly Guided Caliph Othman bin Affan, in addition to presenting some of his jurisprudential interpretations that had a major role in the development of the Islamic judiciary. The judiciary during the era of Othman bin Affan - may God be pleased with him - is not merely an extension of the judiciary in The noble prophetic era, and the era of the Rightly Guided Caliphs who assumed the caliphate before him, Abu Bakr al-Siddiq and Omar ibn al-Khattab - may God be pleased with them and please them - only, although Dhu al-Nourain was keen to implement everything that was proven that the Prophet - may God bless him and grant him peace - or Abu Bakr al-Siddiq Or Omar bin Al-Khattab, they ruled on it exactly, but the developments taking place in Islamic society at that time required him to adapt some rulings or suspend others for a period, as Omar did in the year of Ramadan. Thanks to his breadth of knowledge and depth of understanding of the objectives of Islamic judicial rulings, Dhul-Nourain was able to present Jurisprudence at the level of punishments, discretionary punishment, and financial and social rulings. These rulings influenced the judicial institution and led to its development.
