Islamic Law, also known as Sharia, is a legal system derived from the teachings of the Quran and the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad. It encompasses a wide range of guidelines covering personal conduct, family matters, and community relations. The principles of Sharia aim to promote justice, morality, and social welfare within the Muslim community. Sharia is interpreted through various schools of thought, leading to different applications in different cultures. It includes both mandatory rules and recommendations, addressing aspects such as prayer, fasting, and charity. While some countries implement Sharia in their legal systems, others may use it primarily for personal or religious guidance.
