Abstract:
The Surat is abundant with morals and rules of islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) of different types: 1. Rules presented in the Quran or Sunna that were applicable to previous nations and is considered part of the islamic Sharia without consideration of their previous history. 2. Rules that were part of our sharia but were suspended and are exclusive to other nations but not applicable to islam. 3. Rules of other nations not mentioned in the holy Quran or Sunna and which of course don't apply to islam. 4. Rules included in the Quran and Sunna but with no proof of their suspension or applicability to islam. These rules are open to discussion between scholars regarding their applicability. These points are the main core of the research.
