Divine decrees have wisdom and reason. The necessity and sanctity of rulings or their validity and invalidity is not based on wisdom, but based on the reason of those rulings, and we usually do not have access to understand the reason of rulings, although we may be able to obtain some of the wisdom of rulings. The jurists have always tried to remove the veil of the cause of Sharia rulings by applying appropriate methods and rules and be ready to respond to the jurisprudential problems of the people along with the rapid developments of the human society. Satisfying with the few findings of empirical sciences to recover the wisdom of divine decrees is another type of narrow-mindedness in the precise understanding of the wisdom of the decrees. According to the narrations, which have been confirmed by scientists, the human intellect in the end of time, when it reaches its perfection, is only able to discover a few sciences, that too in the field of experimental and human sciences. Therefore, with these many limitations, human reason cannot restrict and change divine revelation and absolute knowledge by means of its imperfect and small reason. However, some of the wisdom that is intended for jurisprudence can be understood by the imperfect human intellect, and understanding it will be within the power of jurists. For a more complete understanding of jurisprudence, the role of causes, manats and criteria and its adaptation to issues is very deep and effective. This research, by delving into Islamic sources and the opinion of jurists, has dealt with the ability to discover the cause in the rulings of jurisprudence and the explanation and development of the issue in the international arena.
