Islamic Law, called the Shari'a, is based on the exegesis of Islamic texts, especially the Islamic Holy Book called the QUR'AN, but also including the Hadiths and Biography of the Prophet. There is also Qiyaas, which is a case by case applicability of previous precedent to present cases.

What Islamic Law called?

It's called shariah. It is based on legal passages in the Quran as well as anecdotes about the Prophet Muhammad (these anecdotes are called hadith). Because Muhammad was not only a religious but also a political leader, he created laws which not only governed religious life but also secular matters such as wills, divorce settlements, contract law and so on.
