Item description from seller

The Law Applied: Contextualizing the Islamic Shari'a - A Volume In Honour of Frank E. Vogel Edited By Peri Bearman, Wolfhart Heinrichs, Bernard G. Weiss Hardback 544 Pages ISBN: 9781845117368 Publisher : I.B.Tauris About The Book A sea change has taken place in Islamic legal studies. This book both reflects and contributes to that change. Traditionally, scholars in this field have tended to focus on law as a body of rules and doctrines, as 'fiqh'. This volume is more interested in how the law has been applied to concrete situations. It looks at judicial decision-making, legal responses (fatwas), customary practices, the actions of public inspectors, cultural contexts, and theological discourses as well as modern legal reform and constitutional development. Reflecting the interests of a new academic generation, "The Law Applied" offers an ambitious and textured account of how Islamic law works in practice in the social life of the contemporary world.
