Line 176:
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''.
