Islamic law in the legal depiction of the world

Thanks to many factors, each country has formed its own legal system. Each of these systems has a unique set of features and characteristics that set it apart. At the same time, one of the important trends of modern legal development is broad international integration, which is manifested in the unification of legislation, the mutual absorption of different national cultures, the flow of people between countries.This article examines the understanding of Islamic law, the characteristic features of the religion of Islam, the comparison of Muslim law with the law of Muslim countries, by identifying Islamic law with the legal family of Romano-Germanic law. Accent the attention is focused on the influence of dogma in Islam, which society relies on, as well as the influence of the sources of Muslim law (Qur’an, Sunnah, Ijma, Qiyas) on Islamic countries. It is established that the duties of Muslims precede the law of Islam. In particular, it is due to the fact that for Muslims, duties before Allah are more important than their rights. Attention is drawn to the norms and rules taken from the Sharia, which a Muslim must follow and worship. It is analyzed, which elements of Muslim law are borrowed from the Romano-Germanic legal family. Certain differences between Islamic law and Romano-Germanic law are considered. In the course of the research, an uneven state of legal development in Muslim countries was revealed, which indicates the corresponding process of westernization (modernization). It has been proven that there are no significant changes in Muslim law during the process of westernization. However, it is important to understand that Islamic law has different aspects and interpretations and cannot be spoken of as a homogeneous or static system. Islamic law is a subject of constant debate, and its interpretation and application may change over time.
