The Juridical Branches of al-Siyasah al-Shariyyah in the Noble Qur’an

This study employs the descriptive-analytical methodology to investigate the juridical branches of al-Siy?sah al-Shar?iyyah as reflected in the Noble Qur’an. It seeks to answer the central question: Does the Qur’an truly address the principles and applications of Islamic political jurisprudence? The study concludes that the Qur’an indeed provides a substantial and explicit foundation for al-Siy?sah al-Shar?iyyah, and that its branches represent a precise and integral dimension of Qur’anic guidance. Among these branches are: the Qur’anic injunction that governance and adjudication among people must be based on divine revelation; the criminal legal provisions explicitly stated in the Qur’an; and the rationale for specifying certain crimes and their corresponding punishments. The study also demonstrates that one of the fundamental branches of al-Siy?sah al-Shar?iyyah in the Qur’an is the safeguarding of internal security, alongside various directives regarding external political relations. Moreover, the research highlights the Qur’an’s profound engagement with political psychology and political sociology, emphasising their importance in maintaining social order and just governance.
