Conceptualizing of ahkam verses and jurisprudential value of Ahkām al-Qur'ān literature

Conceptualizing of ahkam verses which consists of the term "hukm" which possesses a central position in the Islamic thought and the term "ayah" which refers to the smallest unit of the Qur'an has turned in a form in which it indicates the Qur'anic text which comprises juristic regulations either directly or indirectly by the fact that the judicial field has been intrinsic to the Islamic jurisprudence allied with the religious disciplines gaining independence and that the juristic aspect of the term "hukm" outweighs even though each verse in the Qur'an forms basis for the values or principals relating to the belief, religious practices and ethics and carries a "hukm" pertaining to those. Ahkam verses which incorporate specialties such as gradual legislation, easiness in charging obligations, concentrating on general provisions, basing upon maslaha, looking out for the balance in the individual-society and this world-afterworld relations and having a universal character. Ahkam al-Qur'an studies which are written up by the virtue of understanding, analyzing and commentating the ahkam verses has carried out some other functions such as clarifying the juristic aspect of the Qur'anic text, grounding a base for fractional views, demonstrating the relation between the signification of the Qur'an and other judicial (shar'i) reasons by emphasizing its functionality and exposing the epistemological value which the ahkam verses carries in the eyes of the jurisprudence scholars within the context of bringing verdicts. The authors who put the jurisprudential commentaries which fill a tremendous gap about bringing the connection between revelation and jurisprudence to light down on paper has come up with their explanations about ahkam verses basing upon the theorical ground which the "usul al-fiqh" (methodological jurisprudence) provided them within the scope of maqasid al-shari'a (objectives of shari'a).
