[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.

[close] We read books with big ideas. We talk about them. We learn things. We grow together. What's a *Big Idea*? Something larger than current events and trends that gives us a fresh perspective or understanding on our world. Our reads are not overly partisan. However, we recognize everyone has a point of view, and allow some bias. We identify and engage bias rather than pretend that objectivity exists. Our reads are designed for a broad audience. You don't have to be an economist or physicist to follow.
