uslim law, or Sharia, is a religious legal system based on divine sources like the Quran and the Sunna (teachings of the Prophet Muhammad). It is interpreted through the consensus of scholars (Ijma) and reasoning by analogy (Qiyas), and primarily governs personal and family matters such as marriage, divorce, and inheritance. In some countries, like India, these principles are codified into a personal law for Muslims, such as the Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act, 1937
