Practice these MCQs in the appQuick fact: In Usul al-Fiqh, the opposite of Mufassar is Mujmal, i.e., that whose indication is not clear and requires elaboration.
In Usul al-Fiqh, there are several categories of words based on their indication. Mufassar is a text whose indication is clear and definitive, while Mujmal is a text whose indication is ambiguous and requires another evidence or explanation to be understood. These two are opposite terms, just as Muqayyad is opposite to Mutlaq, and Khas is opposite to 'Aam.
In Usul al-Fiqh, there are four basic pairs of word indications: 'Aam and Khas, Mutlaq and Muqayyad, Mujmal and Mufassar (or Mubayyan), and Zahir and Mu'awwal. Mufassar means an open and clear evidence, while Mujmal is an evidence that contains ambiguity (ijmal) and requires clarification from the Lawgiver.
