Abstract

The Faithful's practice is taken as the general manners of the religious people who live in the divine legislation era whose religiosity mode is the only reason for the occurrence of such a practice. The deep-rooted jurisprudential heritage manifests the strong position of this institution in the domain of inference. In addition to analyzing the most essential legist bases in confirmation of the Faithful's practice, the present study has challenged the main instances of its jurisprudential application. At the end, it can be asserted that the installed limitations in the authorization of this institution have severely limited its argumentation and so, absolute jurisprudential reliance on it is very scarce.
