From Purdah to Parliament
A Simple And Absorbing Narrative Of The Life And Times Of Shaista Suhrawardy Ikramullah. The Account Covers The Days Of The British Raj And Its Aftermath.
Regret
Regret brilliantly recreates a childhood shattered by the Partition of India in 1947. Two lifelong friends, Ehsan and Saeed, reminisce about idyllic summer days spent bunking school, swimming in the canal and relishing the thrills of first love—before the division of the subcontinent changed things forever. Out of Sight recounts the story of Ismail, who narrowly escaped the carnage of 1947 in his youth. Now, looking back on his life and despairing of the sudden resurgence of sectarian violence in Pakistan, Ismail resolves to protect those closest to him. Deeply moving, Ikramullah’s two novellas skilfully evoke the long shadow cast by the violence of Partition.
Interim Measures in Arbitration Under the Pakistani Legal Regime
One of the reasons for the failure of arbitration in Pakistan is the inefficacious law on interim measures. A party can get these measures from court only after the commencement of requisite proceedings and after following a very lengthy procedure in an environment where the courts have tendency to go into the merits of dispute at this preliminary stage. The new proposed law on arbitration should not only remove these lacunae in the present law but should also modernize the arbitration law in Pakistan by giving the arbitrator power to issue an ex parte interim measures also enforceable against the non-parties. Since, the conferral of such powers to a private person, who is not appointed as a judge by state, is not new in Pakistan, it is suggested to incorporate in the new proposed law the amendments in the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law regarding the interim measures as were made in 2006 because that is also compatible to the Pakistani legal culture.
Arbitration Law of Pakistan
Driven to a significant extent by Pakistan’s rapidly growing status in trade and economic partnerships – in particular considering the country’s role in the China and Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) – interest in Pakistan’s dispute settlement regime is on the rise. This ground-breaking book, by Pakistan’s best-known arbitrator, practitioner, and legal scholar, is the first in any language to provide in-depth coverage of all significant topics of Pakistani law on both domestic and foreign arbitration, ranging from drafting of the arbitration agreement to the enforcement of arbitral awards. With comprehensive coverage of Pakistani statutes and case law affecting arbitration and b...
Ganga/Jamuni
This book has resulted from the author's response to what she believed to be an assault, about ten years ago, on her Muslim cultural identity. It is important to understand at the very outset that this book cannot encompass the vast diversity of India, or Pakistan, or Bangladesh. India is the counry where Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism were born.To India fled the Zoroastrians from Persia (Iran) to escape persecution after the advent of Islam in that country. Christians have also lived in India from about 50 AD, a time which precedes the coming of Jesuit priests to Emperor Akbar's court and of Christian missionaries in the wake of the East India Company and the British Empire in India. This book is more concerned with the shared culture of Hindus, who were in India before the Muslims came there, first as traders and later as invaders, and the Muslims who stayed and became a part of India.

Islamic Contract Law
The first comprehensive treatment of Islamic contract law in the English language, Islamic Contract Law serves as both a reference work and an authoritative statement of the law and the Fiqh underlying it. The book's structure draws from the tradition of western contract law books to enable non-expert readers to easily navigate its structure, sources, and application. It covers the complete spectrum of Islamic contract regulation, and includes chapters on the formation of contracts, the sources of Islamic contract law, the role of intention, legal capacity, the importance of the subject matter, as well as the prohibited elements of contracts. Further chapters discuss validity and defects, contractual terms, bilateral agreements, equity-based partnership contracts, ancillary and unilateral contracts, termination and damages, and the role of third parties. Finally, a chapter is devoted to the application of Islamic law in contemporary Muslim-majority legal systems. This is a key work for understanding the contract underpinnings of Islamic finance instruments and is a must-read for scholars, legal professionals, and students with an interest in contracts governed by Islamic Law.
