Islamic Jurisprudence by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee

Islamic Jurisprudence by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee

This book addresses the need to educate people by providing a readable text of reasonable size that covers the myriad questions that fall in the jurisdiction of that discipline. It seeks to offer both lay and specialized readers, especially university students, a handy reader which is simple and lucid. Undoubtedly, uşul al-fiqh is a subject that is replete with subtleties that challenge even the most intelligent minds. It is gratifying that the author has greatly simplified the subject to serve the needs of the non-specialists. However, the simplification of the subject has gone hand in hand with thoroughness and academic rigour. This work is a significant addition to the textbooks available on the subject in English.
