As the time goes on, new problems arise and they are solved by the Mujtahidins. Therefore, it is the distinguished feature of Islam to address and solve all matters of every age. Islam has this distinguished feature due to Ijtihād and Qiyās. In this article, the role of Ijtihād and Qiyās will be discussed in solving the current issues of every age.
