Islamic Law occupies a significant place in contemporary academic discourses. The main reason for that is the modern Islamic resurgence founded on the call for the restoration and implementation of the Shari‘ah. Its effect can be witnessed in the making of the religious movements to the global politics.

Al-Muwāfaqāt is one of the masterpieces of Islamic Law and Jurisprudence. In this work, the great jurisprudent Abu Ishāq al-Shātibi. (d. 790) advocated for the revivalist theory of Maqāsid al-Shari‘ah (Higher Intents of Islamic Law). The themes discussed in it are a fine blend of Legal Philosophy, Epistemology, and Hermeneutics.
