Signed:___________________________ Date___________________ ii Abstract Individual sovereign states are the basic building blocks of the international legal system. Traditionally, states were considered to be absolutely sovereign in the sense that they were legislatively independent and entered into treaty relations that promoted their interests as defined by themselves. This was the basic traditional vision of international law as a non- interventionist system in the domestic law-making of individual nation-states. But the legal regime of contemporary international law has grown beyond this vision, whereby the absolute sovereignty of modern nation-states has steadily diminished and the concept of sovereignty called into question, especially in relation to domestic law-making by states. Today, international law impacts on domestic laws either directly or indirectly, and states must, while embarking on domestic law-making, be conscious of probable violations of international rules on issues that are basically domestic and under their sovereign control. This impact of international law in the domestic legal sphere of states raises significant questions on the application of Islamic law as domestic law of a modern Muslim-majority state like Saudi Arabia. Traditionally, the Shari‟ah as the general value system that stands as a source of Islamic law is considered as divine in nature and thereby immutable. It is therefore often claimed that Islamic law cannot accommodate the encroachment of contemporary international law in the domestic law making of modern Muslim-majority states. Nevertheless, many modern Muslim-majority states remain part of the international legal order, while they continue to adopt domestic laws that are underpinned by Islamic law. How have they been able to sustain their domestic law-making based on Islamic law within the ambit of the encroachment of modern international law as identified above? In that context, this study examines the impact of international law on the domestic legislation of Saudi Arabia, which is a modern Muslim-majority state that has clearly declared Islamic Shari‟ah as the basis of its domestic laws and governance.1 This study is important considering the constraints but also the benefits associated with the interaction between international law and the domestic laws of modern Muslim-majority states generally and how that relationship could be accurately interpreted. 1 See Art. 1, Saudi Basic Law of Governance (1992) iii The main argument of the research is that modern international law, which is conceivably underpinned by western and specifically Eurocentric values, has, despite the traditional concept of sovereignty, steadily encroached upon the domestic legislation of modern nation-states generally, and in particular, Saudi Arabia, a Muslim majority state that strictly adheres to Islamic law as the basis of its domestic legislation. It is argued that while international pressure may be a factor, the inherent benefits of modern international law also play a significant role in influencing Saudi Arabia to maintain necessary equilibrium between its classical and conservative interpretation of Islamic law and relevant rules of modern international law. iv Contents Declaration…………………………………………………………………………………....ii Abstract…………………………………………………………………………………….iii-iv Table of Contents…………………………………………………………….....…………………...v-ix Acknowledgements…………………………………………………………………………….x List of Abbreviations............................................................................................................xi-xii Glossary……………………………………………………...…………………..........xiii-xviii Table of Cases……………………………………… ………...……………….………xviii-xix Tables of Treaties and Declarations……………………….……………………….……xix-xx Tables of Status and Fatwas……………………………………… ………………….xx-xxiii CHAPTER 1: Introduction 1:1 Introductory Remarks……………………………………………………………………...1 1:2 Backgrounds to the Study…………………………………………………………..……..4 1:3 Statement of Research Problem and Objectives…………………………………………..5 1:4 Theoretical Perspectives…………………………………………………………………...9 1:5 Methodology…………………………………………………………..………………....11 1:6 Selection of Saudi Arabia as Country of Focus………………………………………….14 1:7 Literature Review………………………………………………………………………...14 1:8 Structure of Thesis……………………………………………………………………….22 CHAPTER 2: Interaction of International Law and Domestic Law: Between Theory and Practice 2:1 Introductory Remarks…………………………………………………………………….25 2:2 Concept of State Sovereignty: Historical and Evolutional Perspectives…………………………………………………………………………….…...27 2:2:1 Classical Perception of Sovereignty………………………………………….………...28 2:2:2 Contemporary Perception of Sovereignty…………………...………………………....30 2:2:3 Islamic Perspective of Sovereignty…………………………...………………………..32 2:2:4 Sovereignty under International Law…………………………………...……………...33 2:3 A Historical Appraisal of International Law………………………………….………….35 2:3:1 Nature of International Law …………………………….………………….………….38 2:3:2 International Law and Question of Legitimacy……….…………………………….…41 2:3:4 Relationship Between International and Domestic Laws………………………...……42 2:3:5 Enforcement of International Law…………………….…………………………….....46 2:4 The Principle of Sovereign Non-Intervention ………………….………………………..47 2:4:1 The UN and The Principle of Non-Intervention……………………….……………....49 2:4:2 Nation-states and International Law…………..……………………………………….55 2:5 Conclusion………………………………………………………………...……….........56 v CHAPTER 3: Islamic Law in Saudi Arabia: Between Conservatism and Moderation 3:1 Introductory Remarks……………………………………………………………...….….57 Part I -

Tunisians figure disproportionately among the foreign jihadist cohort, yet their ubiquity is somewhat confounding. Why Tunisians?

We have analyzed Hamas’s statements and actions since its inception and have concluded that Hamas has indeed Hamas undergone significant political changes as well as certain slow, limited, and carefully calculated ideological shifts. It is now at the point where it is ready to explore arrangements that will allow it and Israel to coexist without episodic violence. Its ideological Rigidity and readiness is based on the framework of Islamic law (shari‘a) in which Hamas is embedded. Shari‘a both provides the basis for political Flexibility the political actions that Hamas can take and defines which actions are forbidden to it.

  • From Exclusivism to Accommodation: Doctrinal and Legal Evolution of Wahhabism
    NEW YORK UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW VOLUME 79 MAY 2004 NUMBER 2 COMMENTARY FROM EXCLUSIVISM TO ACCOMMODATION: DOCTRINAL AND LEGAL EVOLUTION OF WAHHABISM ABDULAZIZ H. AL-FAHAD*t INTRODUCTION On August 2, 1990, Iraq attacked Kuwait. For several days there- after, the Saudi Arabian media was not allowed to report the invasion and occupation of Kuwait. When the Saudi government was satisfied with the U.S. commitment to defend the country, it lifted the gag on the Saudi press as American and other soldiers poured into Saudi Arabia. In retrospect, it seems obvious that the Saudis, aware of their vulnerabilities and fearful of provoking the Iraqis, were reluctant to take any public position on the invasion until it was ascertained * Copyright © 2004 by Abdulaziz H.
