This book on Islamic Jurisprudence (Usul Al Fiqh) was prepared as an aid to a course on this subject conducted through internet in 1999 to an International Student Population on the request of Witness-Pioneer (an internet based Islamic International Intellectual Movement).

This book will help in understanding the essentials of ‘Usul’. However, to master the subject and get the details, the reader has to turn to the old and new ‘Usul’ works. Names of old and new Usul Books have been mentioned in the Introduction and in the Bibliography. I am indebted for this work to Witness-Pioneer movement, to Wohidul Islam (a Harvard Student), who was my Teaching Assistant, Mr. Shafiquer Rahman, a Pioneer member who helped me in conducting the course and to my students of the course who helped me to improve the course through their questions. Knowledge of ‘Usul’ is essential to save us from mis-interpretation of the
‘Quran’ and the ‘Sunnah’. I pray to Allah that He may accept this book for the benefit of “Ummah
