The Origins of Islamic Law

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the foundational role of Malik's "Muwatta'" in shaping Islamic law, the book explores how Malik derived legal judgments from the Qur'an while also addressing the significance of the "sunna" and its relationship to hadith and amal. It delves into Qur'anic interpretation and the evolution of Islamic law, emphasizing historical context over mere textual analysis. By examining these interconnected sources, the work provides insight into the practical application of Islam and the development of its legal framework.
