Question

Is the ottoman code available in English- what other codes- regarding family laws, etc are available - how old is the ottoman code - year ? I would really appreciate an answer

Answer


Walaikum assalam,

The Ottoman commercial law code is available, but it was translated by a Christian missionary 100 years ago... It is not valid to rely upon the transmission of a corrupt Muslim for religious matters, let alone a non-Muslim, for obvious reasons.

Wassalam,
Faraz.
