What is Maslaha (Benefit/Interest) & Who Decides?

During the lecture, Maslaha (lit. benefit/interest) will be discussed through religio-ethical perspectives and the following questions will be addressed by the panelists:

• How can we define what “best interest” is, whether for the public or for an individual?
• Does Maslaha mean different things to different people who invoke it?
• Which methodologies do they employ and what roles do Scripture, human intellect and moral values play in the reasoning process?
• How does Islamic discourse on this topic relate to parallel discussions in other traditions and philosophies?
