A History of the Early Islamic Law of Property : Reconstructing the Legal Development, 7th-9th Centuries /
:
The present book is devoted to an analysis of positive solutions concerning matters related to civil liability, certain kinds of sale that would evolve into agency and some forms of partnership, and the prohibition of ribā. The analysis has two aims. First, it attempts to trace the process by which some hitherto unclarified institutions and transactions were elaborated to form an integral part of the classical Islamic law of property. The second aim to determine how and why the teachings of particular jurists became predominant in Iraq and Medina and laid the foundation of the Ḥanafī and the Mālikī schools of law in each respective region.

Studies in Legal Hadith
:
This book is dedicated to an analysis of seven groups of hadiths related to matters ranging from the rules concerning water used for ablution to those concerning the proof of facts in a qadi court. It has three main purposes. The first is to clarify the processes by which hadiths on a given topic were formed and developed by analyzing their isnāds and matns and by comparing them with expositions of positive law in legal manuals. Second, it seeks to explain why many hadiths exist in multiple variants and to detect the perception of traditionists about the revision of hadiths. The third purpose is to propose a methodology to estimate the extent to which traditionists accepted hadiths on a particular topic.
