Abstract: I am surprised that my article evoked so heated a response from one of its readers. In rejoinder, I will follow the sequence of his remarks. 1. The purpose of my article is not to belittle non-Muslim legal systems; and the non-Muslim legal specialists to whom I showed the drafts did not take it as an attack. Rather, my purpose is to point out to Muslims in the field of environmental planning some aspects of Islamic legal methodology in the context of their field. This is important because Muslim planners are almost invariably educated within the framework of secular law and values. However, the scope and ultimate aims, the values, principles, and rulings of Islamic law are quite distinctive; and a Muslim planner must be aware of this, if in his work he would be true to his religion. --
