A hardcover 1993 reprint from Dar al-Andalus. First printed in 1987.
The essays in this book, written as far back as in the 1940s, aim to contribute something of a clarification the confusion prevailing in the Muslim Ummah as to the scope and practical implications of Islamic law. The thesis propounded in this book is based on several essays published in the periodical Arafat, which the author wrote and edited in the 1940s.
Arafat was a 'one man's journal' - as its subtitle stated 'a monthly critique of Muslim thought' - a kind of journalistic monologue meant to clarify the great confusion prevailing in the Muslim Ummah as to the scope and the practical implications of Islamic Law. The aim of this book is to contribute something to a clarification of this fundamental issue confronting the world of Islam in this period of transition.
