principle on legal decrees. During The age of Qarakhaninds, Cities in Turkistand such
as Semerqand, Kash, Bukhara, and Serekh were centers of science where the basic
principles of the Hanaft madhab were studied in the minutest detail. The majority of the
afore mentioned jurists were invested with the capacity for ijtihad (interoretation) they

sources of information related to Ottoman Law namely Ottoman code and the syariyyah
note. Ottoman Law consists only of administrative such as state land, military law,
financial law, and crime. While syariah note records are used as a basic for personal
law, family law, and inheritane law.
