Islamic law (Sharia)

Islamic law, or Sharia, is a system of guidelines derived from the Quran (Islam's holy book) and the Hadith (teachings and practices of the Prophet Muhammad). It covers various aspects of life, including ethics, morality, personal conduct, family relations, and legal matters. Sharia aims to promote justice, equality, and social welfare while guiding Muslims in their daily lives. Interpretations of Sharia can vary widely based on cultural, historical, and contextual factors, leading to different practices in Muslim communities around the world. It is important to understand Sharia as a dynamic and evolving framework rather than a fixed set of rules.
