Methodology for Inferring Moral Priorities According to the Narrations of "Afal Tafzil"

Considering the different levels of moral values in Islam, in order to know the most important values and also to eliminate the contradiction, it is necessary to deduce from the texts of verses and hadiths. One of the most important aspects in these texts is the "structure of Tafzil". Some narrations of this structure indicate the priority of one or more values and others indicate a rule in determining the priority. The initial discrepancy between these narrations systematically raises the question of how to resolve the apparent discrepancy between them in order to deduce moral priorities based on these narrations. The research method in this article is descriptive-analytical which is based on the orbit of moral jurisprudence. Examining the regular narrations in the detailed structure shows that there is no inconsistency between them; some of them have a hierarchical precedence over others, and the others are in the same rank or have different statuses of a priority action or a prioritized action is explained in different terms.
