@khoji

This is what I was thinking.
If Quran was revealed for a specific time and is not eternal (per Mutazili), then Quranic laws may be interpreted differently by people from other eras; based on what logic of that time says.
This means that a ruling or fatwa made hundreds of years ago by the four imams may be changed today by scholars of present day. Thus doors of ijtehad are not closed, and **rules of shariah **can be interpreted differently today based on logic and reasoning of present day.

Agreed there, with the exception of certain pre-requisites which need to be considered before doing Ijtehad. What are those parts which need to be changed (the interpretation and application of) and what are those which should not will be next task.

The terms khaliq or makhlooq (considering the meaning of these words) is still irrelevant but if these two made up groups watned to call it like that then so be it.
