In this context, the history of Islamic law and basic introductory information on Islamic law are very important information, especially for students who are studying religious higher education, apart from ordinary people and researchers. As a matter of fact, a basic and permanent set of basic information about Islamic law can only be possible with a solid “Introduction to Islamic Law” course and infrastructure.
