iiclr-17378	Makdisi, John	Hard Cases and Human Judgment in Islamic and Common Law	1991	30	.pdf	application/pdf	13013	653	65	Contrary to the common law system where judges who are responsible for the development of doctrine through case law are independent of the governing power, the Islamic jurists who developed doctrine had no formal authority of office except at the pleasure of the sovereign. The purpose of this discussion is to compare similar modes of legal reasoning in the common law with those in Islamic law.	cache/iiclr-17378.pdf	txt/iiclr-17378.txt
