Analyst's note:  Very interesting .... The answer to the demands of the Sharia that would be imposed on us is a full application of Sharia. In particular, we need to understand how necessity can abrogate obligation.  Just say NO.

Sharia Redux: Necessity and Obligation

When I sent out the video, Necessity and Obligation, there were several questions asked about the textual authority that spoke about this principle. The Reliance of the Traveller is a desk top Sharia text of great authority. Section c6.0, Dispensation and Strictness (another name for Necessity and Obligation), reads:

c6.2 Dispensation is when what is normally forbidden is made permissible because of a necessity or need. [You can read the rest ]

Also in r32.1 we find: …necessity excuses on from any rule whatever…

Section c7.2 also addresses that hardship can mean that an obligatory duty does not need to be performed.
