Abbreviation of Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence (part2)

"An academic, educational book in English that aims to simplify and introduce the essential concepts of Usul al-Fiqh (Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence) to English speakers and contemporary students. This second part focuses primarily on the secondary sources of Islamic legislation and the principles from which rulings are derived specifically the topics of Consensus (Ijma') and Analogical Deduction (Qiyas) detailing their definitions, essential requirements, scriptural proof from the Qur'an and Sunnah and legal applications through a modern methodology that bridges classic scholarship with academic accessibility."

This book, "Abbreviation of Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence (Part 2)" serves as a refined, contemporary summary of the seminal academic reference originally authored in English by Dr. Mohammad Hashim Kamali, abstracted and annotated by Dr. Hatem al-Haj to make it an accessible guide for students, researchers and non-Arabic speakers. Utilizing a systematic and academically grounded approach, this part examines the primary legal sources and principles used to derive rulings beyond the Qur'an and Sunnah, focusing on two main chapters: Consensus (Ijma') and Analogical Deduction (Qiyas). The first section covers the definition of Ijma', its essential requirements (Arkan), its proof (Hujjiyyah) from the Qur'an and Sunnah, its feasibility, types, transmission methods and contemporary reform proposals to revitalize collective reasoning. The second section details Qiyas as the primary deductive tool for addressing modern issues, breaking down its necessary components and conditions particularly those pertaining to the original case (Asl), effective cause ('Illah) and ruling (Hukm) thus providing the reader with a deep understanding that harmonizes traditional Islamic jurisprudence with modern legislative applications.
