The Laws of Islam

The Laws of Islam is the English-language legal manual of Grand Ayatollah al-Modarresi. It provides the reader with a concise overview of the Islamic obligations and recommendations, both personal and social. Although a number of similar texts exist, what makes this book unique is not only its superb translation quality, but the inclusion of a wealth of scriptural evidences for each area of rulings, drawn from both Quranic and Imamic sources. This provides the reader with a more comprehensive understanding of the law and its origins, while establishing a clear connection between contemporary religious mandates and their underpinnings.
