Abstract

The present paper handles terminologies such as (bahirah, saibah, wasilah and ham) to identify their Quranic reference. It attempts an analytical study to clarify and elucidate these terms as narrated in Al-Maidah Surah, Ayah, 103.This Ayah stresses that the Islamic society should be purified from Pre-Islam norms and traditions that destroyed their economy and exploited their livestock for the benefit of rulers and priests, Livestock peculiar to priests and idols were seen grazing in their desert while they were suffering starvation and poverty because of which they killed their children. Therefore, this Surah has been descended to prohibit Pre-Islam traditions and keep safe man money and fortune after being liberated from pagan doctrines.
