1) Law
The discipline and profession concerned with the customs, practices, and rules of conduct of a community that are recognized as binding by the community. Enforcement of the body of rules is through a controlling authority.

2) Constitutional law

Introduction
the body of rules, doctrines, and practices that govern the operation of political communities.

In modern times by far the most important political community has been the national state. Modern constitutional law is the offspring of nationalism as well as of the idea that the state must protect certain fundamental rights of the individual. As national states have multiplied in number, so have constitutions and with them the body of constitutional law. But constitutional law originates today sometimes from non-national sources too, while the protection of individual rights has become the concern also of supranational institutions.

3) Muslim jurisprudence,
Muslim jurisprudence, the science of ascertaining the precise terms of the Sharīah, is known as fiqh (literally “understanding”). The historical process of the discovery of Allah’s law (see below) was regarded as completed by the end of the 9th century when the law had achieved a definitive formulation in a number of legal manuals written by different jurists. Throughout the medieval period this basic doctrine was elaborated and systematized in a large number of commentaries, and the voluminous literature thus produced constitutes the traditional textual authority of Sharīah law.

4) International law
Definition
a body of rules that control or affect the rights of nations in their relations with each other
Introduction
Also called public international law or law of nations the body of legal rules, norms, and standards that apply between sovereign states and other entities that are legally recognized as international actors. The term was coined by the English philosopher Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832).
According to Bentham's classic definition, international law is a collection of rules governing relations between states.

5) International relations
Definition
a branch of political science concerned with relations between nations and primarily with foreign policies
Introduction
The study of the relations of states with each other and with international organizations and certain sub national entities (e.g., bureaucracies, political parties, and interest groups). It is related to a number of other academic disciplines, including political science, geography, history, economics, law, sociology, psychology, and philosophy.
