Excerpt from Droit Musulman, Vol. 1: Recueil de Lois Concernant les Musulmans Schyites
A l'exception des personnes qui se livrent à letude des langues et de la civilisation musulmanes, on ignore généralement que les musulmans possèdent des recueils de lois très-complets et très étendus, et que les traités de jurisprudence composent une des branches les plus importantes de leur littérature. On considère le plus souvent le Korân comme leur unique livre de droit, et l'on s'étonne, avec quelque raison, que des sociétés nombreuses se soient maintenues et se maintiennent encore sans autre code que l'énoncé sommaire, diffus et souvent contradictoire des prescrip tions légales que ce livre renferme. Le Korân contient, il est vrai. Le germe'du droit musulman; mais le défaut de précision et l'ab sence de tout développement en rendraient l'application fort diffi cile, sinon impossible.
