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.Dedication - Acknowledgements - Preface - Glossary- Chapter 1 Introduction to Islamic jurisprudence [Preamble; Definition of Fiqh; Definition of Usul; Definition of Usul al-Fiqh]; Chapter 2: Shari'ah - Islamic law [Definition of Islamic Law; Elements (Arkan) of Islamic Law]; Chapter 3: Obligations and duties [Introduction; Obligations created by the Hukm (rule of law); Duties created by the Hukm (rule of law); Chapter 4: Declaratory rule (Hukm Wad'i)[Classification of declaratory rule]; Chapter 5: Legal capacity (Ahliyyah)[Introduction ; Definition of Ahliyyah; Types of Ahliyyah; Classification of legal capacity; Factors affecting complete legal capacity]; Chapter 6: Right - Haqq [Introduction; Classification of rights; Classification of rights in Islamic criminal law]; Chapter 7: The sources of Islamic law [Introduction; Definition; The classification of the sources; The order of the sources]; Chapter 8: The primary sources [Introduction; Holy Qur'an; Compilation of the Holy Qur'an; The difference in the two compilations; Holy Qur'an as the primary source; Ijma - consensus of opinion]; Chapter 9: The secondary sources [Introduction; Qiyas - analogical deduction; Istihsab - juristic equity or preference; Maslahah Mursalah or Istislah - considerations of public interest or extended analogy; Istishab - presumption of continuity; Urf - custom; Sadd al-Dhara'i - blocking the means]; Chapter 10: Ijtihad [Introduction; Authority for the exercise Ijtihad; Types of Ijtihad; Taqlid]; Bibliography; IndexDr Yahaya Y.
