The doctrine of modern law of the sea is commonly believed to have
developed from Renaissance Europe. Often ignored though is the role
of Islamic law of the sea and customary practices at that time. In
this book, Hassan S. Khalilieh highlights Islamic legal doctrine
regarding freedom of the seas and its implementation in practice.
He proves that many of the fundamental principles of the pre-modern
international law governing the legal status of the high seas and
the territorial sea, though originating in the Mediterranean world,
are not a necessarily European creation. Beginning with the
commonality of the sea in the Qur'an and legal methods employed to
insure the safety, security, and freedom of movement of Muslim and
aliens by land and sea, Khalilieh then goes on to examine the
concepts of the territorial sea and its security premises, as well
as issues surrounding piracy and its legal implications as
delineated in Islamic law.
