This book deals with the concept of Consideration of Public Interest (al-Ma??lih al-Mursalah) in Islamic Jurisprudence as expounded in the works of Ab? Husayn al-Ba?ri, Imam al-Haramayn al-Juwayni, Ab? Hämid al-Ghaz?l? and Fakhr al-Din al-R?zi. Particular attention is given to al-Ghazali since he appears to be the earliest Shafi'i jurist who discusses al-Ma?alih al-Mur??lah systematically.
