Through a comparative analysis of scholarship within these disciplines, the study demonstrates how the Quranic concept of divine Covenant aligns with natural law theory, interrelates with various other legal, political, and linguistic Quranic concepts, shapes the entire literary structure of the Quran, and offers insights into a novel legal theory of 'Islamic origins.' The book posits that the Islamic disciplines share political economy, institutional framework, and crucial theoretical topics with the Quran, including natural law-related issues such as human rights, constitutional separation of powers, and social contract. It conducts a comprehensive survey of scholarly deliberations on these topics within the parameters of each discipline and across different contexts. Furthermore, the book examines the consequences of the modern nation-state institutional order for early modern and contemporary Quranic studies, arguing that the early and medieval Islamic disciplines possess scientifically valuable knowledge due to their reference to the same institutional framework as the Quran. Additionally, these disciplines hold significant importance in European political history, inspiring social contract theory that encompasses diverse religious identities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 594g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 154 x 235 x 25 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781781791714\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ulrika Martensson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096483590394,"sku":"9781781791714","price":25.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1657280469435_book.jpg?v=1657401180","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/divine-covenant-science-and-concepts-of-natural-law-in-the-quran-and-islamic-disciplines-9781781791714","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
