In the common law system, law is interpreted and, thus, "written" by judges hearing the cases. Their decisions become the 'rule of law' for all future cases that are factually similar. The civil or codified law is law that is written into statute or code books and are strictly interpreted by the courts of that country.
In a country which uses civil law, the legal system is based upon legal principles and codes usually rooted from the laws and legal system of the Roman Empire. Any updates to the legal code must be made through legislation or other lengthy processes. Therefore, judges must make rulings based only on these codes and statutes, only analyzing past judicial interpretations of the law for advice. This process allows for a stabler and more representative legal system. France, Germany, and Spain are modern examples of countries who use civil law.
On the other hand, a country which uses common law has a legal system based primarily upon past judicial opinions. These judicial opinions are interpretations of legislation, which are considered more as a guide than as literal requirements such as under civil law. Thus, common law systems acquire their laws over time and may have their laws altered by single rulings. This practice allows for a more flexible and expeditious legal system bypassing the often reluctant and slow-moving legislative system. Because it was developed in England, modern examples of countries which use common law are typically former English colonies such as Australia, India, Canada, and the United States.

The fundamental difference between statutory law and common law is their source of authority. Statutory law is created and enacted by legislative bodies, such as parliaments or congresses, while common law is developed by judges through their decisions in court cases. Statutory law is often codified in written statutes, while common law is based on precedent and past court decisions.
Depends on where you live and what your intentions are. I think the main difference is are you living as a family/couple or as room-mates? The term "common-law" can have family law and tax implications (again, depending on jurisdiction). As far as I know, "live-in companion" is not a legal term anywhere.
Common law is civil law and the principles of common law are developed through fairness and equity. Modern legal codes are derived from common law principals. Modern common law treats all people the same and all have the same rights. Sharia law is religious law and an extension of extreme patriarchal control. It is not based on fairness and logic. Women do not have equal protection or rights under Sharia.
