During the early years of the spread of Islam, the exponents of Islamic legal doctrine were faced with the problems raised by ruling and administering a diverse and rapidly growing empire. In Medina and Kufa, as well as other cities of early Muslim rule, schools of law had to be developed, but it took the genius of Muhammad b. Idris al-Shafi’i, born in the year 150AH\/767AD, to establish the principles by which the various legal doctrines could be synthesized into a coherent system. In the\u003cem\u003eRisala\u003c\/em\u003e, which laid down the basis for such a synthesis, al-Shafi’i established the overriding authority, next only to the Qur’an, of the Sunna (example) of the Prophet Muhammad as transmitted in the traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding: 0px; margin: .5em 0px; font-size: 12px; border: 0px; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: #000000; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; line-height: 17px;\"\u003eProfessor Majid Khadduri has done an admirable service in making this valuable work available in English, His excellent translation uses not only the original manuscripts of Ibn Jama’a and al-Rabi, found at Dar al-Kutub, the National Library in Cairo, but also authoritative editions published earlier in this century, namely the Bulaq and Shakir editions.
