Excerpt from Anglo-Muhammadan Law: A Digest Preceded by a Historical and Descriptive Introduction of the Special Rules Now Applicable to Muhammadans as Such by the Civil Courts of British India, With Full References to Modern and Ancient Authorities
In a work so much used in India and so frequently quoted in the Courts, any changes in the numbering of the sections are undesirable, and I have avoided them as far as possible. In conformity with the practice followed in previous editions, new sections have been introduced Where necessary, without affecting the numbering of the old sections. For example, the legislative amendment to the law of Waltz] has been inserted as sec. 323b of the Digest, and the necessary amendment has been made in see. 323, while the numbering of sec. 324'and the following sections remains unaltered. In the matter of views and opinions I have generally found myself in agreement with Sir Roland Wilson. In the few cases where I am alone responsible for the views stated, my responsibility has been sufficiently indicated, and reasons have been given in support. For example, see sec. 62 and note thereon the latter end of the note to sec. 38; and the whole of Chapter XV.
