(2,884 posts)It does make debating more tricky.
If you say some questions are "not even a logic question", then anything goes.
If logic doesn't apply to reasoning, then we might all as well say what we want no matter what.
Which is what you do quite often
As for syntax ("So Muslim canon is Islamic jurisprudence?"
, you could have wanted to play on the different levels of the word canon, but I suspect you do not use your words with enough precision for that.
The original meaning of canon was the sacred books, here the Quran (in theory, it would also include the Torah, Zabur and Injil, but that's a joke because they all were 'corrupted').
But the practical sense of canon is the regulation or dogma decreed by a church council, the provisions of canon law (Merriam Webster), so, yes, the jurisprudence = the Ijma
In practical muslim terms, the jurisprudence is called the Shariah (literally, the Law) and its sources -as I have posted about 5 times by now- are the Quran+Sunnah+Ijma
as explained in the wiki article "souurces of the Shariah)
