This book is about Islamic law not merely as a doctrinal corpus, object of academic inquiry and analysis, but first and foremost, as a living reality in contemporary Muslim societies where it is enforced as a positive law of the state.

The book shows 19th and 20th century Islamic law as a dynamic process casting its net into the 21st century, shaper of major constitutional and legal developments in the Arab and Muslim worlds already underway, and with drastic and far reaching consequences for the future of these countries and their relations with other states.

The modern process of positivisation of shari'a, i.e., its ongoing transformation into a law of the nation-state, poses a number of burning questions, including:

  • What is the legal domain of the new shari'a?
  • What are its relations to the modern Western-structured judicial apparatus of Middle-Eastern states?
  • What portions of the historical substantive Islamic rulings are to take precedence in its formulation?
  • What is he place, in state-enacted law, of the sacred texts, the legal Qur'anic and Sunna stipulations on marriage and divorce, inheritance, capacity, property, contract, commercial transactions?

    This volume provide some answers to these questions. It will prove fruitful to Middle-East area-specialists, family and women's studies, sociologists and legal scholars and practitioners, as well as to the general reader interested in the richness and variety of world legal systems.
