The Sharia
Sharia is a system of Islamic law derived from the Quran, Hadith (sayings of Prophet Muhammad), and other Islamic texts. It guides aspects of daily life, including worship, morality, family, commerce, and criminal justice. Sharia's interpretations can vary, reflecting different cultural and legal contexts within Muslim communities. It emphasizes principles like justice, compassion, and community responsibility. While some see it as a comprehensive legal code, others view it more as a moral framework guiding personal conduct. Its application differs across countries, ranging from personal religious practice to formal legal systems, often influenced by local legal traditions and societal norms.
