Book synopsis

An Outline of Islamic Jurisprudence is a salient effort at addressing the dearth of materials in the English language in the somewhat complex subject matter of classical jurisprudence. It highlights the uniqueness of Islamic jurisprudence as a developed system because of its exactitude in terms of meaning, province and scope. The book serves as a handy introductory text on the basic principles of Islamic jurisprudence for judges, lawyers, academicians, especially law lecturers, students of law specialising in Islamic law, and the general public.
