The religion is illustrated theoretically and practically by reference to jurisprudence (Fiqh) and creeds (Aqedah). It is crucial that a firm foundation be laid in these areas in order to create a robust framework that is resistant to both temporal changes and the incorrect attempts of certain people to undermine these domains through wrong interpretations. This study applies disciplined, reasonable logic that is guided by divine revelation to examine the theoretical and practical components of creed and jurisprudence. In order to do this, content analysis was used to examine qualitative data that was collected from various primary and secondary sources. The investigation's findings demonstrate how important it is for contemporary Islamic studies to distinguish between theoretical and applied elements. This distinction is significant since it serves as the foundation for many contemporary concepts, ideas, and trends. The study emphasizes the necessity of adhering to both theoretical and practical principles, emphasizing the distinction between primary and secondary issues in the domains of legal interpretation and belief.
