《古兰经》的法律内容
Legal Content Of The Qur’aan
《古兰经》中的伊斯兰教法由多种行为构成,这些行为都是依真主的命令向人类所规定的。就行为所涉及的各方而言,这些行为大体可分为两个基本类别:
Islamic Legislation In The Qur’aan Is Comprised Of A Variety Of Acts Which Have Been Enjoined By Divine Decree On Mankind. These Acts May Be Grouped In Two Basic Categories With Regard To The Parties Involved In The Acts:
A. 真主与人之间的相关事宜。这些是没有正确意图便不能成立的宗教功修。其中一些是纯粹的宗教性敬拜,如拜功和斋戒;另一些是社会经济性的敬拜,如天课(义务施舍);还有一些是社会体能性的敬拜,如朝觐天房(前往麦加朝圣)。这四种敬拜行为被视为信仰(ईमान)之后伊斯兰教的根基。
A. Dealings between Allaah and men. These are the religious rites which are not valid without correct intentions. Some of them are purely religious forms of worship, like prayer and fasting; while others are socio-economic forms of worship, like Zakaah (compulsory charity); and yet others are sociophysical forms of worship, like Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah). These four acts of worship are considered the foundation of Islaam after faith (Eemaan).
B. 人与人之间的交往。规范这些交往的律法本身,依交往的事项又可分为四个小节:a) 保障和维护伊斯兰传播的律法。
B. Dealings among men. The laws governing these dealings may themselves be divided into four sub-sections relative to the subject matter of the dealings: a) Laws ensuring and defending the propagation of Islaam.
这些内容体现在武装或非武装的斗争(圣战,Jihaad)的准则之中。
These, are embodied in the codes of armed or unarmed struggle (Jihaad).
b) 旨在发展和保护家庭结构的家庭法规。这些包括有关婚姻、离婚和继承的法律。
b) Family laws for the development and protection of the family structure. These include laws concerning marriage, divorce and inheritance.
c) 规范商业交易、租赁合同等的贸易法律
c) Trade laws governing business transactions, rental contracts etc.
d) 规定各类罪行刑罚和/或赔偿的刑法。24
d) Criminal laws specifying punishments and or compensations for various crimes.24
