Conclusively, the paper makes findings that context-specific and needs-based neo-Ijtihad legal rulings of Fiqh Al-Aqalliyyah is still viable in this contemporary period to arrest new jurisprudential challenges facing the Muslim minorities in non-Muslim communities.Also neo-Ijtihad exercise of Fiqh Al-Aqalliyyah from a competent Islamic jurists and legal theorists of a particular society is meant for that society only and should not be given general or universal application so as not to cause confusion in the context-specific and needs-based jurisprudential response.
