Religious law comes from the sacred texts of various religions. They cover most parts of personal and contract law.

Abstract. This chapter identifies the sources of law and other regulatory instruments used by States to regulate religion at both the constitutional and the sub-constitutional level as well as the religious subjects which these address. It also identifies the key instruments of international law which deal with religion.
