The examination of the social dimension of shari`ah from the viewpoint of maqasid al-Shari`ah: a case study of the preservation of intellect

Some people criticize that the classic Fiqh literature mostly focuses on generating ruling to meet the requirements of individuals rather than the community.

Shari'ah. Fiqh Some people criticize that the classic Fiqh literature mostly focuses on generating ruling to meet the requirements of individuals rather than the community.
