Tradability Of Abstract Rights From The Perspective Of Majallah Al-Ahkam Al-’Adliyahh, The Ottoman Court Manual

Abstract

We can understand the Islamic perspective on Mal (wealth) earned legitimately through the expression "Qiyam," which has been used for two things, namely wealth and the holy Kaaba. In addition to preserving life, one of the primary objectives of Shariah is the preservation of wealth. The term "Mal" in the Quran refers to all types of physical and abstract wealth.

However, abstract rights are legal rights derived from an individual's intellectual activity in various areas of life, including the industrial, scientific, literary, and artistic spheres.

The article examines abstract rights, which have become essential assets in modern times and analyzes their acquisition, traceability, and Shari'ah status in the context of the Ottoman law/court manual.
