This thesis studies an aspect of Islamic legal reasoning in terms of the method for determining the ruling on cases for which the Shari'a has no textual basis. Al-Ghazali (d.550/1111), a great Muslim theologian, philosopher and süfi as well as a remarkable jurist, made an important contribution to this methodological problem. His theory of munasaba proposes a technique for making a ruling on the basis of an understanding and interpretation of the meaning behind the Shari'a. With this theory, a new case can be decided through a rational analysis without direct support in the textual sources. This theory is related to the legal doctrine of maslaha according to which legal reasoning ought to be mainly guided by considerations of public interest.
