The book launching ceremony was held on March 22, 2022 at the Rawalpindi High Court. The ceremony included addresses by former Justice of Lahore high court, Justice Mirza Viqas Rauf, Advocate Zufran Abbas. Addressing the participants Justice Mirza Viqas Rauf explained about the family law, its significance for Pakistan and the way it can be improved. Mirza Viqas Rauf requested the government to include this book in the academic curricular so that the people can be aware of their rights following the law. Author of the book, Zufran Abbas said that this book is the essence of his training which he has written based on his years of experience.
He further said “We do not shy away from claiming that our book is unique in its style of presenting family laws in a comprehensive and systematically organized form and is also the first book which covers personal laws of Non-Muslims in Pakistan and engages with legal issues related to the conflict of personal laws. We chose family law as the first topic for our forthcoming series of textbooks on laws in Pakistan because of its wide applications and complex interactions with other areas of law such as contract law, property law, employment law, constitutional law, criminal law and private international law. We are grateful to our students and colleagues for their valuable comments and feedback on various chapters of this book.
