Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Personal Law of the Mahommedans, According to All the Schools: Together With a Comparative Sketch of the Law of Inheritance Among the Sunis and the Shiahs To those not born and bred within the pale of Islâm, the study of the Mussulman law is usually attended with great difficulties. The works which at present exist in the English language are few in number; and though France has been more prolific in this respect, the valuable contributions of the Moslems to the science of jurisprudence and law are, for the most part, wrapped in the intricate folds of a language as difficult to acquire as it is copious in its diction. In India, even among educated Moslems, a knowledge of the Mussulman law, if not actually obsolete, has become extremely rare. Few cultivate it as a science, or study it analytically as a branch of comparative law. Those who apply themselves to its study are satisfied with a barren and unprofitable acquaintance with the simple rules of inheritance. This is the consequence of the policy inaugurated by Lord William Bentinck. Prior to his time, the Mussulmans occupied the foremost position among the people of India. The cultivation of their law and their literature was encouraged by successive British governors; their traditions were respected, and they themselves were treated with a certain amount of consideration due to the former rulers of the land.
