The subject of Islamic family law is perhaps the only area of the law that is applied in Muslim countries and as such it has great practical significance. Due to legislation and adjudication in this area, over the last century or more, in most Muslim countries, the important principles of the traditional law have become blurred or obscure. It is, therefore, our endeavor in this particular course to bring out the vital issues of traditional Islamic family law, so that viewers can appreciate this law in its original purity, while those who are acquainted with modern developments in this area are able to recognize the changes that have taken place. As is the method in most courses of the Islamic Law School, the vital issues are highlighted in such a way that they can easily lay the foundation for further research.Read More
The law of zakat, though not as complex as modern taxation law, has its complexities. It will be difficult to understand it if a knowledge of traditional Islamic law is not accompanied by some knowledge of modern commercial law as well as a rudimentary sense of accounting principles and income statements. A person equipped with such knowledge, when he approaches the topic of zakat, will realize that the subject tends to be a bit technical. The present course and its accompanying videos have been designed in such a way that the most import points and issues stand out for the viewer. It is to be hoped that the method followed will not only facilitate understanding of a somewhat technical subject-matter, but will also promote and encourage some viewers to undertake further research on the issues highlighted and described.
Islamic jurisprudence is a term used for the discipline of usool ul-fiqh, which is considered to be the queen of the Islamic sciences. The reason is that it not only teaches us to derive the laws from the sources of this law, but is also lays down methods for the interpretation of the non-legal content in the Quraan as well as the Sunnah. In addition to this, it describes for us the entire structure of Islamic law as well as the system of rights it is based on. In the present video course, we will not be able to cover all these vital areas, but will focus on some very important aspects, which will help the viewer develop an insight into the nature of this discipline. The course will also lay down the foundation for pursuing further studies in this area and possibly indicate topics for research.
Islamic commercial law includes the fundamental principles of theory of contracts, sale of goods, negotiable instruments and commercial documents, as well as the law of business organization.

The issues and points discussed will usually be related to Islamic banking as it is practiced today. There are a large number of rulings and standards that have been issued by institutions like the Islamic Fiqh Academy and the AAOIFI in this area of the law.

The future of Islamic law must be predicted in the light of the study of its glorious past. In this playlist, some attention will be devoted to the founders of the great schools and to the schools themselves. It will be highlighted why schools were necessary in the past and why it is essential to follow them today. As the environment in many modern Muslim states is not very suitable for the growth of Islamic law, it will be our endeavor to suggest how the growth of this law can be kept alive so that it can make a substantial contribution to human civilization today as it has done in the past.
The topic of Islamic law and human rights is of great interest today for scholars as well as interested viewers. There are many texts available on the subject and it may be felt that there is no need to create videos to muddle up issues. Nevertheless, the videos here will be unique in the sense that they will show how the discussion of human rights is deeply embedded within the discipline of usool al-fiqh. The relationship of this discipline will be linked to the discussion of the foundations of human rights as well as to different categories and classes of rights. The effort made in the creation of these videos, it is to be hoped, will lead some to undertake deeper research.
The Constitution of Pakistan is Islamic. There is, therefore, a dire need to study some of its provisions from the perspective of Islamic law.

In the process of such presentation, it is to be hoped that some vital principles of Islamic constitutional law and politics will be highlighted.
The different categories identified so far for the discussion of Islamic law will cover substantial ground, however, there will always be certain topics that will need to be discussed outside the identified categories. This is especially true in issues related to criminal law, procedural law, law of evidence, international law and so on. A topic that is important for present day discussion, but is related to one of these left out areas, will be accommodated under this head. Topics to be included may sometimes be those that are not directly related to Islamic law, or to areas like worship that are not considered law today. In short any important material that does not fit in under the identified categories will be included under this playlist.
