[close] Welcome to the Maqasid Governance Group on Goodreads! Our mission is to explore and discuss the principles and applications of Maqasid al-Shariah (Objectives of Islamic Law) in the context of modern governance. This group is dedicated to scholars, students, and enthusiasts who are interested in the integration of ethical and moral values in governance systems. What we do: Book Discussions: Engage in thoughtful discussions on books that delve into Maqasid al-Shariah, governance, and related topics. Author Interactions: Participate in Q&A sessions with authors and scholars in the field. Resource Sharing: Share articles, papers, and other resources to deepen our understanding. Debates and Dialogues: Encourage respectful debates and dialogues on contemporary issues in governance through the lens of Maqasid. Whether you're a seasoned scholar or new to the topic, you'll find a welcoming community here. Join us to expand your knowledge, share your insights, and connect with like-minded individuals passionate about ethical governance.

All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series (non-fiction books) by James Morcan & Lance Morcan as well as the Underground Knowledge podcast show.

[close] This group is for those who believe - and believe staunchly - that there is One God in absolute control of the entire Universe and every little thing therein. Although apparently mankind is in control of one's own little niche in this world, it is God who is really in command behind the scenes.
