Expert Consultation In The Laws Of
Middle Eastern Countries

Sharia law is the foundation for the law of many countries of the Middle East. Sharia means "path" in Arabic, and it describes a system of law that is much broader than laws of western countries Sharia guides all aspects of Muslim life, including daily routines, familial and religious obligations, and financial dealings. It is derived primarily from the Quran and the Sunna—which contain the sayings, practices, and teachings of the Prophet Mohammed.
