Summary/Abstract: This paper presents the author’s ideas about a possibility of questioning consensus (ijmā’) of Islamic scholars, validity of those consensuses and authenticity of statements found in Islamic writings. In that sense, broad guidelines are presented at the end of the paper. Those guidelines can be of great help to contemporary Islamic scholars for building their relationship with the third source of Shari´ah and for using that source in a quality manner for argumentation and solving contemporary legal issues.
