‘Evidences’ (adillah) are the sources and procedures that a school of law (madhhab) endorses in order to derive rulings. These are also called legislative tools. When primary sources contain indefinite meanings, secondary sources and tools may be used to provide evidence for a ruling. The various schools of Juristic thought (Madhhabs) differ regarding which secondary tools they endorse to provide evidence and how the endorsed tools are ranked in terms of prominence.
