  • Queering International Law's Sexual Subject Through Islamic Legal
    Towards a Sexual Pluriverse: Queering International Law’s Sexual Subject Through Islamic Legal Histories Azeezah Kanji The emergence of rights for sexual minorities as a subject of concern in international human rights discourse has prompted opposition from Muslim-majority states and Muslim scholars claiming that such rights are fundamentally antithetical to Islamic law. Other scholars, however, have disagreed, justifying the extension of rights and legal protection for sexual minorities using arguments drawn from the Qur’an, the sunnah (practice and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad), and classical fiqh (jurisprudence). Interventions on all sides, however, tend to omit the question of how sexual identity is produced and configured as an object of legal regulation in the modern nation-state (in contrast to the pre-modern polity in which Islamic law developed), instead taking these basic terms of the debate largely for granted. However, the rupture effected by the (violently colonial) transition to modernity in the interrelationships between the state, the law, and sexuality renders the grafting of classical Islamic legal norms – whether supporting or opposing contemporary formulations of human rights – onto the modern nation-state problematic. Drawing on the recent work of historians of sexuality and criminal law in Muslim- majority societies, I will re-situate the current discourse against the backdrop of the construction of modern sexual identities – and their legal regulation – through processes of colonialism, modernization, and nation-state formation. I will use the contestations over sexual minority rights as a site for considering the broader problematic of how human rights are formulated and debated – and the question of their universality or relativity considered – in the shadow of (post?)colonial modernity: its institutions, epistemologies, and identity formations.

  • State and Sharia
    © Copyrighted Material 7 State and Sharia Mohammad Fadel†1 One of the most contentious issues in the academic study of Islamic law has been the relationship between the Sharia and the historical polities that Muslims established in diverse times and places. Making this body of inquiry especially difficult to navigate is the fact that scholars’ conclusions often depend on unstated and uncritical theories of the “proper” relationship of the state to the law, which may well be disputed among political scientists and legal and political philosophers. Furthermore, because of the heterogeneity of Muslim views on the nature of the Sharia and the nature of the state, as well as on the relationship between the two, a careful scholar must take care to qualify observations in light of the specific sectarian commitments of the work or works being analyzed. Broadly speaking, then, one can speak of different Muslim traditions that articulate competing versions of the normative relationship between the Sharia and the state. The most important sectarian traditions are those of the ahl al-sunna wa- l-jamāʿa, the Sunnis; the shīʿat ʿAlī, the Shiʿa; and the shurāt, known to their detractors as the Kharijis, the secessionists. Within each of these three normative traditions, of course, there are sub-traditions, marking internal disagreements arising out of different interpretations of each community’s particular sectarian commitments. The Sunni tradition will be the principal focus of this chapter, something that is justified by the fact that it was the historically dominant tradition among Muslims and has received the bulk of scholarly attention. The chapter will conclude with a brief discussion of future research into this topic.

  • Between God and Society Divine Speech and Norm-Construction in Islamic Theology and Jurisprudence
    Between God and Society Divine Speech and Norm-Construction in Islamic Theology and Jurisprudence Omar Farahat Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Omar Farahat All rights reserved Abstract Between God and Society Divine Speech and Norm-Construction in Islamic Theology and Jurisprudence Omar Farahat The role of divine Revelation in the process of construction of normative judgments has long occupied scholars of religion in general, and Islam in particular. In the area of Islamic studies, numerous works were dedicated to the elucidation of various trends of thought on the question of the methods of formulation of norms and values. Many of those studies suppose a distinction between textualist and rationalist theories, and use this framework to explain the most influential Muslim views on this issue. In contemporary philosophical theology and the philosophy of religion, theorists of religious meta-ethics draw upon the medieval and early modern Christian debates almost exclusively. Reconstructing the philosophical foundations of classical Islamic models of norm-construction, which arise within both theological and jurisprudential works, has not received sufficient attention in either discipline. In this study, I explore eleventh century debates on the place of divine Revelation in the formulation of normative judgments in Islamic theology and jurisprudence, and bring this analysis in dialogue with current questions in philosophical theology. By reconstructing the epistemological, metaphysical and semantic foundations of those debates, I show that two general trends emerge on the question of the depth with which Revelation interferes in human moral reasoning, which generally correspond to recent debates between natural reason and divine command theorists in contemporary philosophical theology.

  • Late Antique and Medieval Islamic Legal Histories: Contextual Changes and Comparative (Re)Considerations
    Late antique and medieval Islamic legal histories: contextual changes and comparative (re)considerations by Lena Salaymeh A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ira Lapidus, Co-Chair Professor Beshara Doumani, Co-Chair Professor Wael Hallaq Professor Maria Mavroudi Professor Laurent Mayali Spring 2012 Copyright © 2012, Lena Salaymeh, All Rights Reserved Abstract Late antique and medieval Islamic legal histories: contextual changes and comparative (re)considerations by Lena Salaymeh Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Ira Lapidus, Co-Chair Professor Beshara Doumani, Co-Chair This dissertation demonstrates the contingent and contextual nuances of Islamic legal history by balancing precise legal case studies with broad-spectrum jurisprudential surveys. This work places Islamic legal history within diverse late antique (seventh to tenth centuries CE) and medieval (tenth to fifteenth centuries CE) contexts through specific comparisons with rabbinic legal traditions. By delineating intricate legal changes involving several generations of jurists, my research demonstrates the flexibility, expansiveness, and contingency of Islamic legal traditions within a meta-narrative about the transformations of law in the “Near East.” I offer a historical understanding of the ambiguous and mutable nature of law and illustrate the complexity of legal pluralism and the struggle for legal-politcal authority that underlies the formation of orthodoxy. This research challenges common reifications of “Islamic law” as an inevitable outcome or a static, monolithic whole. Introduction. This chapter provides a literature review of contemporary Islamic legal historiography and comparative studies of Jewish and Islamic law.

  • An Introduction to Islamic Law
    This page intentionally left blank An Introduction to Islamic Law The study of Islamic law can be a forbidding prospect for those entering the field for the first time. Wael Hallaq, a leading scholar and practitioner of Islamic law, guides students through the intricacies of the subject in this absorbing introduction. The first half of the book is devoted to a discussion of Islamic law in its pre-modern natural habitat. The author expounds on the roles of jurists, who reasoned about the law, and of judges and others who administered justice; on how different legal schools came to be established, and on how a moral law functioned in early Muslim society generally. The second part explains how the law was transformed and ultimately dismantled during the colonial period. As the author demonstrates, this rupture necessitated its reinvention in the twentieth- century world of nation-states. In the final chapters, the author charts recent developments and the struggles of the Islamists to negotiate changes which have seen the law emerge as a primarily textual entity focused on fixed punishments and ritual requirements. The book, which includes a chronology, a glossary of key terms and lists for further read- ing, will be the first stop for those who wish to understand the funda- mentals of Islamic law, its practices and its history. wael b. hallaq is James McGill Professor in Islamic Law in the Institute of Islamic Studies at McGill University. He is a world- renowned scholar whose publications include The Origins and Evolution of Islamic Law (Cambridge, 2004), Authority, Continuity and Change in Islamic Law (Cambridge, 2001) and A History of Islamic Legal Theories (Cambridge, 1997).
