ABOUT THE BOOK

A book on Islamic criminal law holds significant relevance for various reasons, reflecting its importance in academic, legal, and social contexts. A book introducing the criminal law framework focussing on theoretical aspects and underpinnings of the Islamic criminal justice system is highly relevant and will be useful for lawyers, academicians and students to provide them with detailed descriptions of the elements of each crime, evidentiary requirements, and punishments. In recent years, Islamic criminal law has been the subject of commentary and critique by scholars and activists within the international human rights community. The book provides a platform for in-depth academic exploration and scholarly analysis of the subject. Moreover, comparative legal studies and thorough examination of Islamic criminal law alongside other legal traditions contributes to a more nuanced understanding of the similarities, differences, and points of convergence between Islamic criminal law and other legal systems. Given the increasing global interconnectedness, this book is helpful for legal practitioners, policymakers, and judges who may encounter cases involving Islamic legal principles for a better understanding of Islamic criminal law. It promotes mutual understanding, tolerance, and cooperation in addressing legal and ethical challenges on a global scale.
