On The Muhammadan Law and Jurisprudence Books Issue
 

[CENTER][B][SIZE="5"][COLOR="Purple"]On The Muhammadan Law and Jurisprudence Books Issue[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][/CENTER]


I've seen many people are confused about books selection. They just wanna rely on one book but to be honest it may be calamitous for you people.
One must have to consult at least two or more books or the whole syllabus.
As a student of law and being a lawyer and after studying and watching the whole syllabus and past papers of CSS.
I honestly suggest you please don't rely on only one book, go through both of the following books
[COLOR="DarkRed"]
[I][B]Muhammadan Law - D.F Mulla
Muhammadan Jurisprudence - Abdur Rahim[/B][/I][/COLOR]

Because D.F Mulla’s Book cover all the codified portion (Statutory portion) i.e.:
[COLOR="Purple"][I]
1) Marriage.
2) Dower.
3) Dissolution of marriage.
4) Parentage and Legitimacy.
5) Guardianship.
6) Maintenance.
7) Gifts.
8) Law of Wakfs.
9) Pre-emption.
10) Wills and death-bed gifts.
11) Administration of estates.
12) Sunni law of inheritance.
13) Shia law of inheritance.[/I][/COLOR]

On the contrary, Sir Abdul Rahim covers
[I][COLOR="Green"]
1. Introduction to Usul al-Fiqh
2. The Qur’an
3. The Sunnah
4. Deducing the Law from its Sources
5. al-Dalalat (Textual Implications)
6. Commands and Prohibitions
7. Naskh (Abrogation)
8. Ijma’ (Consensus of Opinion)
9. Qiyas (Analogical Deduction)
10. Revealed Laws Preceding the Shari’ah of Islam
11. The Fatwa of a Companion
12. Istihsan (Equity in Islamic Law)
13. Maslahah Mursalah (Considerations of Public Interest)
14. Urf (Custom)
15. Istishab (Presumption of Continuity)
16. Sadd al-Dhara’i’ (Blocking the Means)
17. Hukm Shar’i (Law or Value of Shari’ah)
18. Conflict of Evidences
19. Ijtihad (Personal Reasoning)[/COLOR][/I]

Rahim also covers also some of the most important topics to understand Inheritance of Shia and Sunni law i.e;

[COLOR="DarkOliveGreen"][I]Chapter of Legal Capacity, Ownership and Possession,[/I][/COLOR]

further

[I][COLOR="DarkSlateGray"]Torts and Crimes In Islam, Interpretation and History of Islamic Law.[/COLOR][/I]

If you don’t wanna go for Rahim then prepare sources Torts and crimes from somewhere. I’ve prepared these questions in my Universty era but lost them now I am asking my friends and also preparing it. I’ll try to share with you if you need it.
If you wanna skip Sir Rahim's book then

[COLOR="Sienna"][B][I]Islamic Jurisprudence - Imran Ahsan Khan Nayzee[/I][/B][/COLOR]

makes a better pair with D.F Mulla’s Muhammadan Law.

For just reading and enhancing your analytical approach about Muhammadan Law and Jurisprudence

[B][I][COLOR="Purple"]The Reconstruction of Legal Thought In Islam - Syed Riaz ul Hassan[/COLOR][/I][/B]

is an easy and far better book Moreover, it deals with some topics of Islamic Jurisprudence more efficiently.
In the end, if you find the following book, do go for it.

[B][I][COLOR="Purple"]Hedaya by Hamilton[/COLOR][/I][/B]

I think it’s the best book on Muslim Law and Jurisprudence but I’ve honour to have it.

That's all, after studying any two books mentioned above, you don't need to resort elsewhere... do remember me in your prayers.

w/s dear I haven't read Aatir Rizvi's book

I'll suggest you Khurram Aaamir Qureshi's Islamic Jurisprudence it's too like Aatir Rizvi's book meanz guide-types. It'll give the basic idea of every topic and every questions is duly organized in Headings ..... So, get a glimpse of every topic from that book after that move to D.F Mulla and note the key points under the headings of Khurram Aamir Qurshi's Book.....

I'm feeling difficulty to explain you.... It'll be better for you to contact on my e-mail and come online so I may guide you only if you require it otherwise it's ok....

[B]aoa..!
@ shah: i think i sould go with aatar's then if its more or less like that of khuram querishi's cz attar has designed it fr css-aspirants specially.
still will have a look on it...jazakallah fr suggestion...
@ fassi:yeah wil cnct you through mail inshaallah...!
your suggestion of noting the points suits me...i have bought both the d.fmullahs n raheem....

jzk![/B]

[B]@ shah: if you have looked attar's then would u plz give the comparison of both(khuram's) in your view....why would u prefer either over the other ?[/B]

[B][COLOR="DarkOliveGreen"]Dear if Aatir Rizvi's book is too guide type then you should go through it because Khurram Aamir Qureshi's book is too seems to be Exam Cram study. There are two ways to organize and prepare the paper to fetch good marks that are[/COLOR][/B]

[COLOR="Purple"][B][I]1. Read Aatir Rizvi's book and mention the relevant pages and key points of D.F Mulla and Sir Rahim on it for your ease.
2. Read D.F Mulla and Sir Rahim and place headings and sub-headings and divide the lengthy and littered material into points.[/I][/B][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=marvi pathan;575770]i want to opt islamic law replacing international law wud it b a rational decision as um still confuse to go with international law[/QUOTE]

i don't contribute much here. . . .but honest suggestion is stick with i.law because m.law is going to be difficult it is not as easy easy as in old days one require detail and deep study :) so jam yourself with old subject or replace it with any other subject :) stay blessed

[QUOTE=marvi pathan;575770]i want to opt islamic law replacing international law wud it b a rational decision as um still confuse to go with international law[/QUOTE]

I second SHAH Bhai.... I'm a Lawyer moreover studied Muslim Law and related subjects in university even then 2013 paper gave me tough time... So, if you have major interest in Islamic Law opt it otherwise International Law is a suitable choice as well as it is interesting and helps in current affairs, tells about rights and duties of states moreover explore role of major international organizations i.e UN, WHO etc.

rest is up to you....:closedeye

The thread is very useful......Sir please tell me about the book that contains reference of sections of various statutes dealing with Muslim Personal Law(Marriage, Dower, Inheritance, maintenance, Divorce etc. )

i have Muhammad Law by M.hidayatullah........ is it good??? it has almost all the topics which the D.F Mulla's book has,

can anyone please tell me how is muslim law n jurisprudence as a subject my other optionals are zoology , phsycology , journalism need help n is it better to take muslim law n jurisprudence along with journalism then to take muslim history as i have short time ...

[QUOTE=jawwad ahmad;581184]The thread is very useful......Sir please tell me about the book that contains reference of sections of various statutes dealing with Muslim Personal Law(Marriage, Dower, Inheritance, maintenance, Divorce etc. )[/QUOTE]

It is suggested, for preparing for Muslim Law and Jurisprudence, to get a copy of "outlines of Muslim Personal Law" by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee which covers in a brilliant manner the following topics:

"1. Marriage (Nikah) including marriages prohibited by law
2. Divorce (Talaq), khul`, and separation. Right of divorce for women: tafwid, takhyir and tamlik.
3. Maintenance
4. Child Custody (Hidanah)
5. Restitution of conjugal rights
6. Mourning (Ihdad)
7. Vow of continence (Ila')
8. Zihar (injurious assimilation)
9. Lia`an (imprecation)
10. Gift (hibah)
11. Waqf (charitable endowment)
12. Inheritance (fara'id)
13. Wasiyah (bequest)
14. Qard (interest-free loan): a charitable act and not a business transaction".

the author, a Qadi in Virtual Shariah Court, has also critically evaluated Pakistani Statutes relevant to Muslim Personal law and case law on related issues.

if one has studied Sir Imran Ahsan Khan Nayzee thoroughly then i dont think any paper of juris could toss u with hard time...

Muslim Law Paper English or Urdu??
 

Paper is in English or Urdu or in both?? Seniors please help

Prof Naeem ahmad book on Muslim law and Jurisprudence is recommended for topics of Khula ,talaq inheritance ect

My 2018 experience.
 

I had just read Atir's book for my previous attempt in 2018, and it made to secure 58 marks. But I could not crack it then because of English. But keep in mind, I was simultaneously taking help from the net. One thing more, you have to memorize some topic or at least the main headings from it.
