Abstract
This paper explores the influence of Islamic law schools on copyright laws in Islamic countries. Despite their rich jurisprudential legacy, Islamic ideas are underrepresented in global copyright discourse. The research uses a qualitative approach, focusing on semi-structured interviews and content analysis of historical and legal sources. The findings reveal that Islamic law schools offer insights into intellectual property rights, balancing individual and community needs with ethical considerations. The paper suggests policy recommendations for more communication between Western legal scholars and Islam, and updating copyright rules for Islamic nations to align with Islamic jurisprudence.
