Outlines of Muslim Personal Law by Imran Ahsan Khan Nyazee is a comprehensive study of the principles and application of Muslim personal law in the modern legal context.

Major topics include:

• Marriage and its legal requirements

• Dower (mahr) and maintenance

• Divorce and its various forms under Islamic law
