Abstract

Islamic law is international law. It has been so from the day it was revealed. Its reach is global and unlimited applying equally to the the whole world and locally. Islamic law recognizes no state or the idea of a state; it is for this reason that no state was established during the period of the Prophet (pbuh). Qur'an addresses all mankind, again and again, laying bare the causes of the decline and destruction of nations. rules for the survival of mankind and the success of nations are also elaborated in detail. concepts of dar ul-Islam and dar ul-harb represent the different world views within the Muslim Ummah. principle stated by al-Dabbusi recognises this reality: The world according to us (Hanafis) is divided into two dars, while according to al-Shafi'it is a single indivisible dar. In other words, Imam al-Shafi'i applies Islamic law to the whole world without distinction, but the Hanafis make a distinction waiting for acceptance by the whole world.
