Appreciating the Objectives of Islamic Law (Shari’ah)

  • We have been reminded of the importance of knowledge. It is knowledge that familiarises us with Islam. It is knowledge that enables us to appreciate the beauty of Islamic teachings and laws.
  • Through this knowledge, we discover the implicit objectives emphasised in the Shari’ah and our religious laws.As people of faith and reason, it is our responsibility to align our thoughts and lifestyles with the Islamic rulings, also known as Shari’ah.
  • If we reflect upon and truly comprehend the verses that constitute laws in the Quran and the hadith of the Prophet (s.a.w.), we will definitely understand the wisdom behind these verses or hadiths.
