Islamic Laws

Islam is the only religion which has given extensive laws for every walk of life and for the peaceful and healthy survival of society. this book provides a detailed analysis of Islamic laws. Islam is the religion of Allah revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) in order that he might proclaim it to all mankind and men might be able to believe in it and put its teachings and regulations into practice. T he Apostle transmitted the Scripture precisely as it was revealed to him, explained its fundamental teachings, and in his own life followed the principles and regulations of the Holy Revelation. Since the tie of the Prophet, Muslims have for generation after generation received the Qur’an as it was given to the Apostle himself from Allah, passing it on precisely as it was taught at the beginning – whereof there is no doubt whatsoever. It has been definitely proved that the Qur’an could not possibly be the work of Muhammad or of any other human being, as is clearly seen when one considers its style, the treasures of teachings contained in it, and the environment in which Muhammad lived. In the Scripture itself Allah defiantly stressed the impossibility of imitating the Qur’an when he said to the unbelievers, “And if ye are in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto Our slave (Muhammad), then produce a surah of the like thereof, and call your witnesses beside Allah if ye are truthful. And if ye do it not-and ye can never do it-then guard yourselves against the fire prepared for disbelieves, whose fuel is of men and stones” (Surah II, 23-24). Such a final demonstration that the Scripture was revealed by Allah to Muhammad is the Muslim’s authority for recognizing the Qur’an as the principle source of Islamic beliefs and the Islamic code governing practices. No doubt, this work will prove of utmost value to the scholars and laymen alike who wish to have detailed look into Islam.
