This volume examines Islamic law based on philosophical considerations. It seeks to prove that the Islamic interpretation of law should be interpreted as the moral doctrine of pragmatic reasoning and, as such, is based on ancient philosophical tradition, which considers the interpretation of the law as a form of morality. The volume also covers historical and modern theories of Islamic law.
