The objective of writing a book on the Blasphemy Laws in Pakistan has four aspects. Since the basis of the laws constitutes an Islamic perspective and jurisprudential background, the first aspect is to critically examine its lineage with the Quran and the Sunnah and to find out what those sources say about blasphemy. The second aspect is to critically examine how close in conformity the existing blasphemy laws are with Islamic injunctions. The third aspect is to review its application. The fourth aspect is to critically review the effects, implications, and repercussions on minorities, and to an individual.
