'''Daleel''' (دليل, pl. ''adillah'') is an Arabic word meaning evidence or proof, and in the terminology of [[Islamic jurisprudence]], the word refers to anything that is used to deduce and justify a ruling or [[fatwa]] from the [[Shariah]], or [[Islamic Law]]. While there exist numerous specific types of daleels arranged in a hierarchy, as understood variously by the different schools of Islamic law, all generally agree today that among the most important daleels are, in order, the '''[[Qur'an]]''', '''[[Hadith]]''', '''Ijma''' (consensus of Islamic scholars or [[Muhammad]]'s [[companions]]), and some form of '''Qiyas''' (analogical reasoning). | '''Daleel''' (دليل, pl.
