The term "Sīrah" (conduct/practice) is one of the most widely used Islamic concepts that has applicability in various fields, especially Shi'a (Imami) jurisprudence. Shi'a jurists, in accordance with their utilization of the sources of juristic inference, have employed this religious term and have cited it as evidence (Dalīl) or a contextual indicator (Qarīneh) for a religious ruling. However, the main question is: has the use of the term Sīrah by jurists been limited and occasional, or has it occurred extensively and at the level of a scientific term? The present research attempts, through a library-based method and by examining the application of the term Sīrah in the texts of the jurisprudence of acts of worship (Fiqh al-ʿIbādāt), to demonstrate the extent of Shi'a jurists' use of this term. For this purpose, using the comprehensive Jurisprudence of Ahl al-Bayt software and searching for the keyword Sīrah in discursive jurisprudential works from the fifth to the fifteenth century AH on the subject of acts of worship, the relevant works were examined. The research findings indicate that the application of the term Sīrah in the literature of Shi'a jurists has had two distinct periods. First, a period in which the use of the term Sīrah was limited and infrequent. Second, a period in which reliance on Sīrah increased and expanded to the level of a jurisprudential term. This evolution has been influenced by a set of factors, the most important of which is the belief in the efficacy of Sīrah in Shi'a jurisprudence. This factor ultimately led to the consolidation of the position of Sīrah in the literature of Shi'a jurists and its elevation from a religious term to a scholarly term.
