Book excerpt: Using contemporary illustrations, Legal Maxims in Islamic Criminal Law delves into the theoretical and practical studies of al-Qawaid al-Fiqhiyyah in Islamic legal theory.

Download or read book Islamic Legal Maxims written by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about qawa`id fiqhiyyah, which are sometimes referred to as legal maxims. In reality, the qawa`id play a much wider and more effective role as compared to legal maxims. Islamic law is all about principles and rules; it has been so from the day of its birth. The reason is that principles and rules were laid down by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. The relationship between the disciplines of usul al-fiqh and qawa`id fiqhiyyah is like the relationship between the two arms of the human body; they cooperate with each other to yield the rules of fiqh. This vital relationship has been kept concealed by separating the two disciplines and by severing the bond between them. This book attempts to uncover this relationship, and to restore the bond. Understanding this relationship will enhance understanding of the discipline of usul al-fiqh as well.

Download or read book Islamic Legal Maxims written by Justice Munir Ahmad Mughal and published by . This book was released on 2023-08-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oldest collection of Legal Maxims that has reached us is the Risalah 'usul, al-Karkhi (260AH-340AH) By deep study of these 'usul it reveals that they are inclusive of qawa`id, dawabit, 'usul, and kulliyat. Some of them have the status of such general kulliyat that can be declared as the collective asset of Islamic Fiqh and some 'usul are such which may be useful in knowing the effective cause of Fiqhi values and to know the solution of Fiqhi problems according to the Hanafi way of proving a thing (istidlal) and the Hanafi style of logical deduction on a legal question (ijtihad) by a learned and enlightened doctor (Mujtahid). Imam al-Karkhi is the author of the first existing book on legal maxims. "...The style of Imam Karkhi is that he states the legal maxim in a small sentence while Imam Nasafi gives brief example. The principle and the example are so concise that a person who is not well-versed in Fiqh is not in a position to easily get the benefit of it. Here it should be remembered that the legal maxims of Imam Karkhi have undergone the process of refinement in the later centuries, and almost all the maxims at present are not in their original shape that was given to them by Imam Karkhi. For instance, out of the ninety-nine legal maxims given in Al-Majallah, only one maxim (article no. 4 of Al-Majallah) is partially stated according to the form of the first maxim of Al-'usul of Imam Karkhi. Otherwise, all the remaining maxims are present in Al-Majallah so far as their meanings are concerned, but the words and statements are not the same which were given to them by Imam Karkhi."[1] Abul Hasan al Karkhi was a Hanafi Faqhi who wrote al Usul (d 340 H). He is among those who is known as al Mujtahidin Fil Masail; He was a contemporary of Imam ibn Majah, Abu Daud, Tirmidhi and Nasai.

Download or read book Maxims of Equity written by Michael Levenstein and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equity is a world unto itself. Originally conceived and administered by the ancient Court of Chancery in England, this arcane body of rules and principles has matured into a distinct branch of modern jurisprudence, influencing almost every field of private law -- from contract and tort to company and real property. Specifically, equity seeks to fashion practical justice by alleviating the inflexibility of the common law when liable to produce unfair outcomes in addition to providing a more robust set of remedies, such as injunctions or specific performance, to aggrieved claimants. Chancery law is governed by a set of principles referred to as 'Maxims of Equity,' nearly twenty moral guidelines aimed at providing jurists a wide scope in overriding the rigors of private agreements and facilitating complex financial and proprietary transactions such as the creation and management of trusts of land. Recognizing these maxims as key insights--not only into our own legal order but into the moral values that society at large prioritizes--requires both philosophical dissection and the practical assessment of their efficacy. Such scrutiny ultimately permits a keen understanding of the nexus between ethics and law, their inevitable divergences and which areas of the latter are most in need of reform.
