Ijma | June 18, 2004
Ijma literally means settling, resolving, agreement or concurrence in Arabic. In Islam the term is used for the Consensus of the Umma, the community, about any issue, especially about any God-given Norm for human life. In Sunni legal theory it is the third source of authority after the Quran and the Sunna for decisions on any questions.
