lawyer's law if common law is a
judge's law."

[24] For example, every
Waqf was required to have a
waqif (founder),
mutawillis (trustee),
qadi (judge) and beneficiaries.
[25] Under both a
Waqf and a trust, "property is reserved, and its
usufruct appropriated, for the benefit of specific individuals, or for a general
charitable purpose; the corpus becomes
inalienable;
estates for life in favor of successive beneficiaries cannot be created" and "without regard to the law of
inheritance or the rights of the heirs; and continuity is secured by the successive appointment of trustees or
mutawillis."
[26] The trust law developed in England at the time of the Crusades, during the 12th and 13th centuries, was introduced by Crusaders who may have been influenced by the
Waqf institutions they came across in the
Middle East.
[27][28] Dr. Paul Brand also notes parallels between the
Waqf and the trusts used to establish
Merton College by
Walter de Merton, who had connections with the
Knights Templar.

Like the English jury, the Islamic
Lafif was a body of twelve members drawn from the
neighbourhood and sworn to tell the truth, who were bound to give a unanimous
verdict, about matters that "...they had personally seen or heard, binding on the judge, to settle the truth concerning facts in a case, between ordinary people, and obtained as of right by the
plaintiff." The only characteristic of the English jury that the Islamic
Lafif lacked was the "judicial
writ directing the jury to be summoned and directing the
bailiff to hear its recognition." According to Professor John Makdisi, "no other institution in any legal institution studied to date shares all of these characteristics with the English jury."

[34] Sameer S. Vohra says the
United States Constitution is similar to the Qur'an in that the Constitution is "the supreme law of the land and the basis from which the laws of the
legislature originate."

ijma methods, in that judicial decision-making is "a means by which the law is applied to individual disputes," that "words of the Constitution or of
statutes do not specifically address all the possible situations to which they may apply," and that, "at times, it requires the judiciary to either use the
consensus of previous decisions or
reason by analogy to find the correct principle to resolve the dispute."
