The registers of the Sharia courts of Al-Quds, Register no. 57

The Sharia Court Registers that were published by IRCICA in 37 volumes during 2013-2020 were prepared for publication by Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Rabaie. These 37 registers containing the records of legal cases dating from 1545 to 1701 are original historical sources. The cases are related to issues concerning  waqfs, timar and  zeamet fiefs, education, taxes, military matters, relations between Muslims and non-Muslims, appointments, repairs and restorations, constructions, families, society, economy, among others. The records were kept by the qadi (judges) and their deputies. In these volumes, the information on the names of the judges, the subjects, dates and outlines of the events is given in the form of tables. Each volume has indices of persons, places, institutions and terms, and a bibliography.
