1 An Introduction to Islamic Law LAWS 6518 Tue,Thu 9:00 AM - 10:15 AM WOLF 207 Hamid M. Khan Adjunct Professor, University of Colorado Law School McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP hkhan@mckennalong.com Hamid.Khan@colorado.edu INTRODUCTION Islamic law, also known as Shariah, is one of the oldest systems of law of the contemporary age. With over 1.5 billion adherents, Islamic law is part of the laws of nearly 60 nations and plays a vital role in the conduct of all Muslims. This course introduces students to the Islamic Law by giving them a firm grounding in the principles, concepts and terminology. We begin by examining the Formative Era of Islamic Law, through its sources and methodologies. Next, we examine the Established Era of the Schools of Law including the differences between Sunni and Shiite Islamic Law. Finally, we examine several substantive areas of Islamic law, including human rights, terrorism, political Islam, women s rights and rights of religious minorities, criminal law, and finance law and pay special attention to the growing role of fundamentalism in these areas of law. We conclude by examining the relevance of Islam and Islamic Law in today s world. No previous familiarity with the field is necessary and there are no course prerequisites. The final grade will be calculated as follows: Attendance & Class Participation: 20% Final Exam: 80% GRADING The foregoing class is governed by the Law School s Honor Code which is predicated on the premise that the study and teaching of law in an academic setting is an integral part of the legal profession. Students and Faculty engaged in that activity, therefore, do so as members of the legal profession, and they recognize the need to maintain a high level of professional competence and integrity in their work.
