Analytical Review of Noel James Coulson Book’s A History of Islamic Law
تلخیص
The Western Orientalism movement had resulted in the creation of a large
academic asset of Islamic literature. The Orientalists had struggled in two
ways; by introducing and editing old Islamic manuscripts, and by
commenting on the various aspects of the Prophet’s (PBUH) life and his
traditions. Moreover, some Orientalists had worked on the Islamic
jurisprudence, too. As Coulson, have been discussed analytical studies of
Islamic jurisprudence, in this regard his book, “ The History of Islamic
Law”, is a sorely needed book; it will substantiate a highly impactful, direly
beneficial and effective book; and above all, it is a remarkably wellconstructed book.
Mr. Coulson’s compact volume is a clear, comprehensive, and authoritative
treatment of the genesis and history of Islamic law in theory and practice,
and of the central problem of legal reform now confronting Muslim society.
Islamic law, the Sharia of medieval Islam, is for Muslims and the
comprehensive catalogue of God’s commands and recommendations laid
down for the guidance of man… In recent times, with the wholesome
adoption by Muslim countries of western legal ideas and institutions, the
Sharia has seemingly been all but forsaken and abandoned… Unless the
idea of a law system based on religion is to be abandoned entirely…
[Coulson] points out, the task for modern Muslims, like that of their
medieval predecessors, is once more to ascertain and impose the central
ethical criterion norms of Islam upon the functioning’s of their society. N. J.
Coulson was a chair of oriental laws at the School of Oriental and African
Studies, University of London. In this article the analytical and critical
review is discussed.
