Detailed answer on the importance of Islamic law to Muslims?
ANASSAIDUISMAIL
This is a question about inheritance under Islamic Law. Under Islamic Law when both parents have passed away the parents assets are traditionally divided and passed to the children on the basis of 1 share per female child and 2 shares per male child. However, the division of 2 shares per male child is made on the basis that the male children are responsible for looking after any unmarried of their sisters.
My first question is does the above traditional division still apply in a modern Islamic environment where the male children do not take any responsibility for their sisters. The follow-on question concerns the situation where one or more of the sisters have looked after one or both of the parents before they have passed away. In this situation do the carers inherit more than the 1 share to which they would otherwise be entitled.

How did Islamic law affect Muslims towards christians and Jews?
Islamic law is actually secular - Islam does not have a clergy or institution like you'll find in Christianity and Judaism. This means Islamic jurisprudence deals with Muslims as it does people of other faiths. But there are certain distinct privileges within the faith which are reserved for Muslims. Things like Zakat (alms to the poor) but they can be spread to include non-Muslims as "sadaqa" (alms to the poor in general). Its not the religion or laws that affected Muslims attitudes towards other faiths, but the various cultures and politics of Muslims around the world.

As Muslims, the Ottomans followed Islamic law. But there were topics not fully covered by Islamic law---criminal law and taxation, for example. So the sultans passed laws to address such situations. Suleyman organized these laws into a legal code that could effectively govern the vast and expanding empire.
