About This Book:
In his book "Principles of State and Government in Islam," Muhammad Asad conducts a thorough investigation of the guiding ideals that support an Islamic state and administration. Asad dives into important topics like governance, law, justice, and the complex connection between the state and its citizens within the Islamic framework, drawing on his extensive understanding of Islamic jurisprudence, historical perceptions, and political ideas. Asad explores the Islamic view of government in the book, illuminating the importance of fairness, consultation (Shura), and conformity to Islamic law (Sharia). The very fact that none of the existing Muslim countries has so far achieved a form of government that could be termed genuinely Islamic, makes a discussion of the principles that underlie the constitution of Islamic state imperative. This book is an attempt to keep that discussion alive.
