Summary/Abstract: The Qur'an, as the last divine revelation, contains regulations relating to all aspects of human life and as such is a basic, fundamental source of all disciplines from the corpus of Islamic sciences. This work aims to present the Qur'an as the basic source of Islamic jurisprudence, without neglecting other segments of the last divine revelation. Although the Qur'an is not a legal document, but rather a Book of religious and moral principles and incentives, it nevertheless contains a number of legal statements. Qur'anic principles pertaining to civil, criminal, domestic, international and other areas of law are presented in five hundred verses which have legal form. This work has through examples exhibited the most significant methodological procedures used by the Qur'an in standardizing its legislation: the methods of principle, the summary and detailed norms. Also, this work mentions the most important Qur'anic styles which the Qur'an uses in explaining its legal regulations.
