الإجماع الصريح
al-Ijmāʿ al-Ṣarīḥ
Explicit consensus: agreement of the jurists stated openly, each by word or act, on a legal question.
What it means
Al-ijmāʿ al-ṣarīḥ is the clearly expressed form of consensus. The word ṣarīḥ means plain or explicit. Here every jurist of the age states his view on a question, whether in speech or by deed, and the statements all agree. Jurists treat this as the strongest kind of consensus, and they contrast it with silent agreement (al-ijmāʿ al-sukūtī). Since the agreement is declared, the schools generally accept it as proof for a ruling, while they disagree among themselves about how often it has actually occurred.
