Criminal Laws in Islam: A Bibliography
Classical and modern sources
References on Islamic criminal law (ʿuqūbāt), covering classical juridical works and modern comparative studies.
Drawing on three decades of bibliographic work at the International Islamic University, this volume makes a sustained contribution to Bibliography — a field where primary-source rigour and modern indexing meet. Each entry is annotated, cross-referenced to the broader Sirah literature, and presented in a form that supports both classroom teaching and advanced research.
