The process of codifying Fiqh rulings and its legal impacts on amending Jordan's family law 36 of 2010

Abstract EN

The present study has been designed not only to discuss the conceptual framework of the process of the Fiqh codification and its historical evaluation but also to focus on the aims and significance of the codification in modernising Islamic Fiqh – Jordan's family law as a case study -.

The researcher sought to analyse the legal impacts that can be generated as a result of the process of codifying the five Fiqh rulings, Wajib and Mundob, Haram, Makroh and Mobah and transform them to legal clauses that can be used to regulate the issues of Muslim life.

The researcher has sought to prove that the process of Fiqh codification can make a qualitative leap in the application of Islamic law in our modern life.
