"The book "Abbreviation of Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence" is a concise abridgment of one of the most renowned academic references in English on the science of Islamic legal theory (Usul al-Fiqh), originally authored by Dr. Mohammad Hashim Kamali and condensed by Dr. Hatem al-Haj. The book aims to present the foundational rules of Islamic legislation, its primary sources (such as the Qur'an and Sunnah) and the methodologies of legal deduction in a simplified, academic manner in English, making it an ideal primer for non-Arabic-speaking students and researchers seeking to understand how Islamic legal rulings are derived."
The "Abbreviation of Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence" is a streamlined adaptation of one of the premier global academic references in English on Islamic legal theory by Dr. Mohammad Hashim Kamali, condensed by Dr. Hatem al-Haj to offer a direct and accessible layout tailored for students and researchers, particularly non-Arabic speakers. The book systematically covers the foundational entry into Usul al-Fiqh, its scope, and the distinctions between legal theory, jurisprudence (Fiqh) and legal maxims (Al-Qawa'id al-Fiqhiyyah), while tracing the historical development of the discipline, its scholarly methodologies and the classification of legal proofs. Furthermore, it devotes a detailed section to the primary source of Islamic law the Holy Qur'an examining the characteristics of the Quranic text, the nature of revelation, the gradual implementation of rulings, textual transmission (Tawatur) and the distinction between the Qur'an and Hadith Qudsi, thereby bridging classical Islamic heritage with modern academic methodology to demonstrate that the derivation of Islamic legal rulings rests upon rigorous, highly structured principles.
