This marked the passade from spoken law to written law. Difficulties at this stage resulted from differences of interpretation, contradictions, and controversies over the authenticity of documentation. This first stage of codification led to the establishment of an orthodox. The second stage marked the passage to a more 'legalistic' form, undertaken from the 16th century onwards by the ottoman empire. This modern codification represents a means of unification, and set out the secularisation of justice and of law. In recent years a fundamentalist revival and be discerned which advocates a return to the original code
