Usul al-Fiqh by Recep Dogan Pdf

This book deals with the sources of Islamic jurisprudence and their importance in deducing the religious rulings. It covers the concept of ijtihād (independent reasoning), its conditions and application and illustrates why it is a practice for experts rather than laymen. It also explains the differences in the levels of expertise of the mujtahids. In fact, there are seven distinct classifications of mujtahid. The book also covers the communication of God as Lawgiver with regard to the conduct of liable persons. It details the difference in probative value of communication based on the extent to which it binds an individual be it absolutely binding, a recommendation or mere permissibility. The reader will be able to understand the difference between fiqh (law) and Usūl al-Fiqh (methodology of law). Fiqh is the law itself whereas Usūl al-Fiqh is the methodology utilized to extract the law. The relationship between the two disciplines resembles that of the rules of grammar to a language, or of logic to philosophy. Usūl al-Fiqh in this sense provides the standard criteria for the correct deduction of the rulings of fiqh from the sources of Shari’ah (the Qur’an and Sunnah).

Understanding Usul Al Fiqh (Principles of Islamic Jurispudence) by Abu Tariq Hilal Pdf

Due to the intellectual decline that befell the Muslim Ummah during the last few centuries various confusions exist today regarding Islamic jurisprudence (Fiqh). Most of these relate to misunderstanding subjects related to the principles and foundations of jurisprudence (Usul al-Fiqh). Different extremes exist today where some Muslims look at evidences from the Qur'an and Sunnah and attempt to interpret them without having the necessary framework to extract the correct meanings. Whilst others disregard the Shari'ah evidences altogether, utilising their own logic rather than the revelation and some who believe that the doors of Ijtihad are closed.This book aims to clarify key subjects that establish the framework of Islamic juristic thinking such as: - Understanding the key terminology of Usul including Daleel, Shari'ah and Fiqh.- The definitive sources of Shari'ah - the Qur'an, Sunnah, Ijma' as-Sahabah & Qiyas.- Sources of Shari'ah not agreed upon by all Ulema (scholars) - Ijma' al-Ummah, Maslaha al Mursalah, Istihsan, laws revealed before Islam and others.- Ijtihad, the Mujtahid & Taqleed.- An overview of the Islamic schools of thought.Most of the books written on this subject in English have been written for academic purposes and rather than for the normal reader. This 243 page paperback book has been written in a clear simple style understandable to the average reader. Abu Ismael al-Beirawi has ammended the original book 'Studies in Usul al-Fiqh' written by Abu Tariq Hilal. He slightly restructured the book so that the definitive sources of law are discussed before those upon which there is disagreement amongst the scholars. The chapters on the Quran, Qiyas, Ijtihad and Taqleed were brief in the original. He has added to these and in some cases rewritten sections where elaboration was required. In this age of doubt and scepticism Abu Ismael felt it necessary to add some textual evidences and much needed references for some definitions and Ahadith. To distinguish this amended version from the original a new title has been given that keeps to the simplicity of the original.It is clear that in writing the original, Abu Tariq referred to Sheikh Taqiuddin an-Nabhani's (ra) masterpiece 'Shaksiyyah Islamiyyah' (The Islamic Personality). He has done the same, as well as referring to the excellent book 'Teyseer al wusool Ila al-Usul' (To make understanding Usul easy) by Sheikh Ata ibn Khalil Abu al-Rishta (May Allah protect him).

Ijtihad (Occasional Papers) by Taha Jabir Al-Alwani Pdf

Considering that the accepted juridical sources of Islam are valid for all times and places, ijtiahd may be described as a creative but disciplined intellectual effort to derive legal rulings from those sources while taking into consideration the variables imposed by the fluctuating circumstances of Muslim society. Consigning ijtihad to be annals of history is a denial of the rationalistic, egalitarian, and humane aspects of a realistic and durable Faith. The act would be a repudiation of the requisites of changing times and of the clamoring need to rid the Ummah of its present baggage of malaise and enable it to forge ahead, inspiring other nations and communities. It can be proved historically that the Ummah only entered its current crisis after ijtihad fell into disuse and was gradually replaced by taqlid. It is only through ijtihad that Muslims will be able to construct a new specific methodological infrastructure capable of addressing the crisis of Islamic thought and so, propose alternatives for the many problems of the contemporary world. The courage that needs to accompany such a mission is tremendous, the methodology massive an meticulous. With this work, Dr Al-Alwani has contributed to the debate on this vital issue. The very way he tackled it-sometimes with boldness, sometimes with caution-shows that the debate is not an open-and shut issue, and that it needs to be widen quickly in view of the urgency of the situation.

Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence by Mohammad Hashim Kamali Pdf

This third edition of the best-selling title Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence has been completely revised and substantially enlarged. In this work, Prof Kamali offers us the first detailed presentation available in English of the theory of Muslim law (usul al-fiqh). Often regarded as the most sophisticated of the traditional Islamic disciplines, Islamic Jurisprudence is concerned with the way in which the rituals and laws of religion are derived from the Qur'an and the Sunnah—the precedent of the Prophet. Written as a university textbook, Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence is distinguished by its clarity and readability; it is an essential reference work not only for students of Islamic law, but also for anyone with an interest in Muslim society or in issues of comparative Jurisprudence.

Islamic Jurisprudence by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee Pdf

Islamic jurisprudence or usul al-fiqh provides the foundation for any meaningful study of Islamic law. The present book has been in the field for more than a decade and has received a positive response from many quarters. It is used as a textbook in a number of university courses. The information in the book was kept to a bare minimum; it was generally considered sufficient to understand the sources of Islamic law along with the basic methods of interpretation, also called ijtihad. Over the years, however, students have shown an eagerness to know more. They have raised many questions whose answers the book does not provide, because the book was not intended to answer those questions. Many of these students had recourse to the Internet and raised the questions in the hope of getting the right answers. Some of the answers given were, unfortunately, incorrect or misleading, primarily because they were not given by persons qualified to do so. The activity still continues and is gathering pace. It was also realized that there were several questions that had not been raised by the students and general readers, but these were questions that should have been asked. A catologue of the questions asked, and those not asked, gave rise to the need to revise the present book. One main issue that was a cause of concern was that, even after reading the book, most readers fail to distinguish between the meaning of usul al-fiqh as sources and usul al-fiqh as a discipline. The phrase "usul al-fiqh are four" has become embedded so deeply in minds that it is difficult to think about the meaning of the discipline itself, which is the real purpose of studying usul al-fiqh The present, third, edition of the book has, therefore, been revised and three chapters at the end have been completely rewritten. The slight increase in the size of the book has been ignored keeping in view the significance of the issues involved. The book continues to have five parts as earlier.

Source Methodology in Islamic Jurisprudence by Taha Jabir Alalwani ,A. S. Al-Shikh-Ali,Yusuf Talal DeLorenzo Pdf

Usul Al-Fiqh is a science which is deeply embedded in the Islamic experience and one which, thanks to its methods and concerns, helped generate an empirical trend in Muslim culture, in turn benefiting western thinking. Itself a creation of influences from within and without, Al-Usul, often called “The Philosophy of Islam,” invites both reason and revelation to work for the harmony and well-being of human society. Although the science of Al-Usul is mainly concerned with legal matters, its range and the arsenal of tools it uses makes it attractive to students of Islamic Jurisprudence as well as to other scholars of Islamic Knowledge and culture. The difficulties it poses are inevitable. This book, however, attempts to simplify this “Most important method of research ever devised by Islamic thought” during its most creative period, and bring it to the understanding and appreciation of the modern learner, while underscoring its importance and relevance to the world of Islam today.
