Abstract
While discussing the law and morality, H. L. A. Hart stated: “Reflection on this aspect of things reveals a sobering truth: the step from the simple form of society, where primary rules of obligation are the only means of social control, into the legal world with its centrally organized legislature, courts, officials, and sanctions brings its solid gains at a certain cost.”2 (emphasis supplied) In contradistinction to Hart’s ‘legal world’ that comprises legal institutions and procedures, the judgement in Asia Bibi Case3 was pegged into religious reasoning.
