To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The juridical worksexcerpted in it are almost all foreign to Hindostan; the special casesillustrative of abstract doctrines are taken from other countries, and many of them from ages antecedent to the invasion of India by theMoguls. Though Persian was the court language of the Mogul dynasty, there isscarcely any Persian element in Aurungzebe's legal compilation. TheShiite views of jurisprudence, as of theology, prevailed in Persia;the "Futawa Alumgeeree" is strictly Sunnite. It is not difficult... toaccount for this. --The Mahometan conquerors of India were mainly ofTurkish or Tartar race; they came from Turan, a region which from timeimmemorial has stood in antagonistic relations to Iran or Persia. Thismay account for the fact that the races of Turan which have embracedMahometanism have uniformly adhered to the Sunnite sect--the sectmost hostile to the Persian Shias--not only when they settled in thecountries where the Sunnite sect originated, but when they remained intheir native regions.
