Abstract


This study aims to investigate the primary challenges hindering the successful implementation of the Sharia legal system in Bauchi State. The research endeavors to identify and elucidate these major challenges and propose possible solutions. Sharia, as a legal system, brings about positive changes within the Muslim Ummah, and it is imperative for Muslims to lead a dignified life as individuals destined to represent Allah on Earth. The absence of Sharia, i.e., Islamic law, in our society poses internal and external threats. This study seeks to determine the extent of the problems impeding the full implementation of the Islamic Sharia legal system in Bauchi State and aims to provide remedies for the situation. Furthermore, the study utilized questionnaires to shed light on the respondents' perspectives regarding the active problems hindering the complete implementation of the Sharia legal system in the state. The findings of this study hold the potential to benefit the Muslim Ummah significantly once the Sharia legal system is effectively implemented.
