This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work constitutes a critical analysis of classical and modern aspects of the concept of istihsan (juristic preference), an important principle in Islamic legal legislation throughout history. Although there has been many research works on the subject, it still requires further investigation on the role and nature of istihsan with regard to a combination of classical and modern approaches.

He also analyses the validity of istihsan as a source of law and discusses the differences among scholars on its method of implementation.

Book Synopsis The Theory of Istihsan (juristic Preference) in Islamic Law by : Ridwan Aremu Yusuf
Download or read book The Theory of Istihsan (juristic Preference) in Islamic Law written by Ridwan Aremu Yusuf and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Istihsan(juristic preference) deviates from and sometimes contradicts well-esta blished general precepts of law. It calls for a considerable amount of personal judgment on the part of the jurist who applies it. In the early period of Islam, istihsan was identified with ra'y (personal opinion) which frequently lacked sy stematic guide-lines. Abu Hanifah (d. 150/767) does not consider istihsan as a m erely arbitrary opinion. He believes that it is a procedure of setting aside an apparently strict ruling of analogy in the interest of fairness and justice. On the other hand, Shafi'i (d. 204/819) adopts a text-oriented approach; he believe s that a Muslim jurist is guided, not by intuition, but by textual evidence (dal il). He therefore subscribes to qiyas (inference by analogy) and rejects istihsa n. An Hanafi jurist, Sarakhsi (d. 490/1096) later wrote a chapter on the explana tion of qiyas, istihsan and takhsis al-'illah (particularization of the cause) a s a rebuttal to Shafi'i's criticism of istihsan. Ibn Taymiyah (d. 728/1327), and Hanbali jurist, not only agrees with the istihsan, but believes that it is in r eality takhsis al-'illah. To this effect, he wrote a treatise on istihsan and ca lled it Mas'alat al-Istihsan. This thesis studies the concept of istihsan as des cribed by the above mentioned jurists, and some of their works on the subject ar e translated into English. The purpose of this thesis is to offer an historical study on juristic preference, its relationship with qiyas and takhsis al-'illah. This study attempts to add to our knowledge of istihsan and leads us to further and fuller analysis of why Shafi'i rejected it.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Bioethics by : Mohammed Ali Al-Bar
Download or read book Contemporary Bioethics written by Mohammed Ali Al-Bar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the common principles of morality and ethics derived from divinely endowed intuitive reason through the creation of al-fitr' a (nature) and human intellect (al-‘aql). Biomedical topics are presented and ethical issues related to topics such as genetic testing, assisted reproduction and organ transplantation are discussed. Whereas these natural sources are God’s special gifts to human beings, God’s revelation as given to the prophets is the supernatural source of divine guidance through which human communities have been guided at all times through history. The second part of the book concentrates on the objectives of Islamic religious practice – the maqa' sid – which include: Preservation of Faith, Preservation of Life, Preservation of Mind (intellect and reason), Preservation of Progeny (al-nasl) and Preservation of Property. Lastly, the third part of the book discusses selected topical issues, including abortion, assisted reproduction devices, genetics, organ transplantation, brain death and end-of-life aspects. For each topic, the current medical evidence is followed by a detailed discussion of the ethical issues involved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of Islamic law can be a forbidding prospect for those entering the field for the first time. Wael Hallaq, a leading scholar and practitioner of Islamic law, guides students through the intricacies of the subject in this absorbing introduction. The first half of the book is devoted to a discussion of Islamic law in its pre-modern natural habitat. The second part explains how the law was transformed and ultimately dismantled during the colonial period. In the final chapters, the author charts recent developments and the struggles of the Islamists to negotiate changes which have seen the law emerge as a primarily textual entity focused on fixed punishments and ritual requirements. The book, which includes a chronology, a glossary of key terms, and lists of further reading, will be the first stop for those who wish to understand the fundamentals of Islamic law, its practices and history.

Book Synopsis Ibn Ashur by : Muhammad Al-Tahir Ibn Ashur
Download or read book Ibn Ashur written by Muhammad Al-Tahir Ibn Ashur and published by IIIT. This book was released on 2006 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaikh Muhammad al-Tahir ibn Ashur is the most renowned Zaytuna Imam and one of the great Islamic scholars of the 20th century. The publication of this translation of Shaikh Ibn Ashur’s Treatise on Maqasid al-Shari’ah is a breakthrough in studies on Islamic law in the English language. In this book, Ibn Ashur proposed Maqasid as a methodology for the renewal of the theory of Islamic law, which has not undergone any serious development since the era of the great imams. Ibn Ashur – quite courageously – also addressed the sensitive topic of the intents/Maqasid of Prophet Muhammad (SAAS) behind his actions and decisions. He introduced criteria to differentiate between the Prophetic traditions that were meant to be part of Islamic law and the Prophetic actions/ sayings that were meant to be for the sake of specific purposes such as political leadership, court judgment, friendly advice, and conflict resolution. But Ibn Ashur’s most significant contribution in this book has been the development of new Maqasid by coining new, contemporary, terminology that were never formulated in traditional usul al-fiqh. For example, Ibn Ashur developed the theory of the ‘preservation of lineage’ into ‘the preservation of the family system’, the ‘protection of true belief’ into ‘freedom of beliefs’, etc. He also introduced the concepts of ‘orderliness’, ‘natural disposition’, ‘freedom’, ‘rights’, ‘civility’, and ‘equality’ as Maqasid in their own right, and upon which the whole Islamic law is based. This development opens great opportunities for Islamic law to address current and real challenges for Muslim societies and Muslim minorities.

Book Synopsis The Economy of Certainty by : Aron Zysow
Download or read book The Economy of Certainty written by Aron Zysow and published by Lockwood Press. This book was released on 2014-06-23 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aron Zysow's 1984 Ph.D. dissertation, "The Economy of Certainty," remains the most important, compelling, and intellectually ambitious treatment of Islamic legal theory (usul al-fiqh) in Western scholarship to date. It continues to be widely read and cited, and remains unsurpassed in its incisive analysis of the most fundamental assumptions of Islamic legal thought. Zysow argues that the great dividing line in Islamic legal thought is between those legal theories that require certainty in every detail of the law and those that will admit probability. The latter were historically dominant and include the leading legal schools that have survived to our own day. Zahirism and, for much of its history, Twelver Shi'ism, are examples of the former. The well-known dispute regarding the legitimacy of juridical analogy is only one feature of this fundamental epistemological division, since probability can enter the law in the process of authenticating prophetic traditions and in the interpretation of the revealed texts, as well as through analogy. The notion of consensus in Islamic legal theory functioned to reintroduce some measure of certainty into the law by identifying one of the competing probable solutions as correct. Consequently consensus has only a reduced role, if any, in those systems that reject probability. Another, more radical, means of regaining certainty was the doctrine that regarded the legal reasoning of all qualified jurists on matters of probability as infallible. The development of legal theories of both types, that of Zahirism no less than that of Hanafism, was to a large extent shaped by theology and, most significantly, by Mu'tazilism, and subsequently by Ash'arism and Maturidism. Zysow's important work is published here in full, for the first time, with updated references and some further reflections by the author.
