Excerpt from First Steps in Muslim Jurisprudence: Consisting of Excerpts From B?d?rat-Al-Sa'd of Ibn Ab? Zayd; With Arabic Text, English Translation, Notes, and a Short, Historical and Biographical Introduction
In offering this little work to the public, it is necessary to say a word or two with regard to its purpose and the circumstances to which its appearance is due. In the first place it is hoped that it may be of general use to English students commencing the serious study of Arabic, with a view whether to the Indian or to the Egyptian service: its immediate raison d'être, however, is of a more special nature. The recognition of Muslim law, and especially such portions of it as relate to family rights, (marriage, succession, wills, gifts, etc.) in our West African Colonies and Protectorates has created a need for some handbook in which the principles (at least) of that law might be studied by commissioners and other legal officers on whom mainly falls the responsibility for its due administration. Unfortunately, at the present moment there is no work in the English language quite suitable for this purpose. Of general introductions to the study of Muslim law, it is true, two excellent examples are afforded in Sir R. K. Wilson's "Anglo-Muhammadan Law" and Mr. Ameer Ali's "Student's Handbook of Mahommedan Law": but both are written with a view particularly to Indian judicial arrangements and from a Hanafi standpoint.
