Description

This book concerns Article 2 of the Iraqi Constitution of 2005, which states that Iraq is a modern Islamic constitutional democracy. The Article contains what is commonly referred to as a "repugnancy clause," which prohibits the enactment of any law that is contrary to Islam's settled rulings, the principles of democracy, and the rights guaranteed in the Constitution. The repugnancy clause allows the constitutional court to invalidate laws that violate the constitution and uphold laws that do not. Currently, the Iraqi Federal Supreme Court's method for determining whether or not a particular law is repugnant to the Constitution and Islamic settled rulings as per Article 2 is inconsistent and arbitrary. The core question in this book is: What is the best way to successfully implement the Repugnancy Clause of the Constitution of Iraq? I propose an approach that focuses on the classical Islamic concept of the Maqasid, an Arabic word that means intent, purpose, or objectives of Sharia.
