THE JURISPRUDENTIAL PRINCIPLES OF CIVIL RESPONSIBILITY RESULTING FROM USING PUBLIC PASSAGEWAYS

Author

Abstract

One of the principles of Islamic jurisprudence is paying equitable attention to both individual and society and not to ignore any one of them in favor of the other; a principle which is best observed in the demarcation of the limits of private and public proprietorship, since in Islam the individual proprietorship is as respectful as the public proprietorship and never can any one of them be neglected for the sake of the other, although under certain circumstances observing the respect of one may take precedence over paying regard to the other. Making use of the passageways which are the true evidences of public proprietorship, although a citizen' right, should not disclaim the right of others in using them.
