In order to demonstrate to some degree how great the difference is between Islam and what is presented as Islam, I would like to draw your attention to the difference between the Qur’an and the books of hadith, on the one hand, and the practical treatises of jurisprudence (risclah-yi ‘ilmiyya), on the other. The Qur’an and the books of hadith, which are the sources of commands and ordinances of Islam, are completely different from the treatises written by the mujtahid s of the present age both in breadth of scope and in the effect they are capable of exerting on the life of the society.17
