It relates to the Sources or Foundations of Islam; the Doctrines of Islam; the Imamate; Fiqh, i.e. the religious, ceremonial, civil and moral laws and regulations; and the Sects of Islam. The four sources from which the doctrines and precepts of Islam are founded are the Quran, the Sunna, the Ijma and the Qias, whilst the special branch of theology which treats of the interpretation of the principles of these four sources embraces 'ilm, or positive knowledge, and fiqh, or understanding. It is with these aspects of Islamic theology and law that this book is concerned. Thus it provides a scholarly approach to the subject whilst many Arabic quotations throughout reinforce the author's argument. ~ The Rev. F. A. Klein went out as a missionary of the Church Missionary Society in 1851, to Palestine; in 1882 he was appointed to Cairo and in 1898 retired from active service and resided in Germany. He then commenced the present work, for which by his thorough acquaintance with Arabic he was eminently fitted. He died in 1908 and the manuscript was sent to the Committee of the Church Missionary Society. A note on the "Development of the Science of Dogmatics" was left in such an unfinished state that it has not been published. Another note on the "Sects of Islam " is added to this book. It is not up to date, nor as full as it might be, but it is all Mr. Klein intended to say. The rest of the volume was fully completed and is now printed in exactly the form in which Mr. Klein wished it to be, for he placed a printed specimen page with his manuscript and the arrangement of type there found has been adopted. …
