Fatima Ouled Yahia
Pages: 32-41
Abstract
This study is considered an attempt to understand the role of one of the thinkers in renewing doctrinal thought, Sheikh Ibrahim Bayoud in Algeria. It addresses the importance of Sheikh Bayoud as one of the most prominent intellectual and religious figures in Algeria in the 20th century. The study highlights his approach to dealing with doctrinal constants and variables, where he primarily relied on both rational and textual evidence, balancing them in his jurisprudential interpretations. Through these interpretations, Sheikh Bayoud guided new generations towards a deeper and broader understanding of Islam, free from doctrinal rigidity. This approach had a significant impact on Islamic thought both in Algeria and beyond. His influence was particularly evident in combating intellectual stagnation and promoting a revitalized Islamic thought that keeps pace with contemporary developments, making him a pivotal figure in the renewal of doctrinal thought in Algeria.
