Reviews
"A Treasury of Sacred Maxims did not disappoint; in fact it added to a key under represented area of fiqh. A deceptively succinct text that covers forty legal Maxims but goes beyond a mere introduction. One would expect a legal discussion, however Dr. Shahrul Hussain has added a moral aspect to each legal maxim. An excellent text which can be memorised alongside a primer fiqh text in any Islamic studies curriculum.”— Mufti Amjad M Mohammed

“This inspiring collection... will help deepen the understanding of key aspects of Shariah in its legal and ethical dimensions.”— Islamic Voice

“A little book with loads of wisdom.”— Islamic Voice
