Abstract	:	Muslim jurists explicate the nature of various command s based on their understanding and interpretation of relevant Qurʾānic verses. Depending on its wording, emphasis, and nuances of expression, a command (amr) may convey various meanings and juridical consequences. A command is defined as a verbal demand to do something issued by a superior to a subordinate. Command thus differs from supplication and request in that the former is a demand from a subordinate to a superior and the latter from one person to another of equal or nearly equal status.
