To put it simply, Islam is a religion and practice while Islamic theology is the study behind that practice. How it all came about, its’ morality and justification. Likewise, studying Jurisprudence will help you understand what makes something a law, whether it’s a decree enforced by the authorities and how does it reflect morality.
A Bachelor in Jurisprudence will teach you the fundamental ideas of the tradition, theory and concepts of law, the role of a judge, the detailed nature of human rights and the internal organisation of law.
Have you ever read the newspaper and wondered how some criminals get the death sentence and some don’t? And doesn’t the death sentence contradict with human rights? Shouldn’t they be given a second chance or at least put them in prison instead of just taking their lives? Jurisprudence assesses every aspect of that and allows you to question verdicts. Because of this, you get a better grasp at how law is carried out and possibly raise up the person in you to be an activist.

“Even an attorney of moderate talent can postpone doomsday year after year, for the system of appeals that pervades American jurisprudence amounts to a legalistic wheel of fortune, a game of chance, somewhat fixed in the favor of the criminal, that the pa

You’re able to explain to your friends why the Ringgit drops against the UD Dollar. You’re able to tell why the price of the new iPhone continues to go up. You understand how things work, by thinking extensively about all the processes involved around them.
To be able to scientifically analyse a subject like law, you’ll need to have those creative juices well stored. To look at certain laws from various viewpoints, and question them as to what, or why, in the name of bettering those same laws, requires a creative mind.
