* The Temple of the Defeat of Atheism was built by Sultan [[Amhoud I]] in Adrien at the site where he was crowned to commemorate his defeat of the Packilvanian Communist Party and the restoration of Paxist rule over Packilvania. Madvinists consider it a sacred site and other sects believe it is of some value because they value the restoration of Paxism. However, all other sects have complaints about the self-aggrandisation of the [[Bedonite dynasty]] and its rule over Packilvania that lead them to disregard the supposed holy status of the Temple that Amhoud wanted it to convey instead considering it a temple like any other. |

== Jurisprudence (''Shureeh'') == |

Paxist jurisprudence known as ''Shureeh'' refers to the body of religious law (''leKhanon aPaxashme'') of Paxism. It consists of Bulls (''Fataw'') which are issued and recognised by the Magisterium of Paxism. These bulls are regarded as binding interpretations of scripture arising from scholarly research and exegesis of the [[Writings of Paxism]]. Bulls are required to be peer reviewed and must be issued by a recognised Magister. They can be revoked by the same Magister or by a higher ranked Magister. Paxist jurisprudence entails both substantive and procedural law. |

This jurisprudence covers all areas of law. They can cover the appointment and dismissal of clerics, the proper execution of religious rituals, the enforcement of practices and the interpretation of beliefs. A Magister is authorised to judge religious disputes however in Packilvania a court system exists whereby only Magisters appointed by the Sultan or in line with Packilvanian statute. In Packilvania there are Religious Courts and Religious Appeals where the latter receives appeals for religious issues and the former are responsible for trials and dispute resolution. A crime against a Paxist religious law is known as ''Hidaad''. Places and principles which cannot be violated are known as ''Hiraam''. |

The jurisprudence of Paxism is not uniform or cohesive. Bulls issued by a Magister typically applhave binding effect within the area of their geographic jurisdiction and persuasive effect beyond that. Thus, there can be Bulls which differ significantly on the interpretation of scripture. This separation in the geographic jurisdiction was created to prevent opinions in the increasingly diverse and geographically distributed religion from dividing due to differences in ideology and circumstances. Furthermore, the Council of Great Magisters and Supreme Magister have been reluctant to rule on conflicting jurisdictions and it has preferred not to certify many Bulls, relegating many of them to Opinions. |
