(A research review of the some Asian scholars view about Naskh Fi al Quran in the light of Quran and Sunna )

Absract:
Naskh (abrogation) is a term usually used in Islamic legal exegesis for seemingly contradictory material within or between the twin bases of Islamic Holy Law: the Quran and the Prophetic Sunna which means the replacement or nullification of some rulings of almighty Allah. These rulings were required by the Muslims community to meet the changing circumstances or from a more theologically inflected stand-point, the expiration points of those rulings Allah intended as temporary all along were reached. But such changes can occur only in verses conveying commands. Verses cast in the conveying narrative statements and central tenets of the faith, can not be affected by abrogation.

The stem n-s-kh occurs four times within the Holy Quran: at Q.7:154, Q.45:29, Q.22:52, and Q.2:106.Similarly Sahih ul Bukhari also claims some Quranic verses (2:284,2:240,2:184) to be abrogated.

First of all Hazrat Ali (RA) highlighted the importance of this very knowledge and later on the famous scholars like Qatada, Alzuhri and Tabari worked about this knowledge. According to different scholars meanings of the word Naskh the range of abrogated verses reached from 5 to 500.

But some scholars of the last century especially of the Sub continent adopted a different concept of Naskh in the Holy Quran and denied of its occurrence. The following article is to make an appraisal and research based review of their views in the light of the teaching of Quran and Sunna .
