Concepts of Islamic jurisprudence and legislation

Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) is the science of deriving legal rulings from the primary sources of Islam – the Qur’an, the Sunnah, ijma (consensus) and qiyas (analogical reasoning). Legislation (sharia) refers to the body of law that governs the conduct of Muslims in all aspects of life.
