Along side Koranic verses that follow in this compilation, you will find names of schools of law in parenthesis as well as a particular aspect of Sharia Law, also in parenthesis. The noted schools are ones that have quoted the verse to justify the corresponding aspect of their Sharia Law. If no school of law is listed, it is because the verse was not quoted in the Sharia reference works we consulted, however we have included the verse because it thematically relates to the subject concerned.
