“Law for Crime under Islam” explores how criminal offences are handled by the Islamic legal system, providing a thorough grasp of how crime is classified, decided, and punished under Shariah. This book delves into the fundamental sources of Islamic law, specifically the Qur'an and Sunnah, which serve as the cornerstones of Islamic criminal jurisprudence. The classification of crimes under Islamic law is covered, including Tazir (discretionary punishments for lesser crimes), Qisas (retributive justice, notably in situations of murder or bodily harm), and Hudud (set punishments for significant offences like theft, adultery, and apostasy). The book highlights the goals of rehabilitation in criminal punishment along with the Islamic concepts of justice and kindness. The book also discusses how purpose, the importance of evidence, and the rights of accused and victim people affect how justice is administered in Islamic legal systems.
