Faculty of International and
Comparative Law
Although ICIS follows the Ahlul Beit school of thought within Islamic framework, it nevertheless allows students to study subjects from other philosophical schools, religions and Creeds. This provides each student with a wider comparative study and view in order to find the right path. Moreover, equal opportunity policy has been adopted throughout our activities.
For each unit taught, students should spend at least 2 hours for listening & review and another 2-3 hours for homework and study.
Please note those books and note papers offered to students are only references. Students should seek further study from other related books. However, emphasis is given to the recorded lectures on which students should mainly depend.
It
is recommended that student's study the subjects first, then listen to each
tape, then discuss the contents with a colleague. Accordingly, formation of
study groups is highly recommended and has proved to be very effective.
The
rational for this faculty is to provide sound teaching of Islamic Law (Shari’a
or Fiqh) based on subjects taught at traditional seminaries
of Najaf and
