More specifically, it is an historical examination of the development of the long-standing, indigenous tradition of learning and praxis known as Islamic law (sharia, fiqh) as a result of its imbalanced interaction with new European modes of knowing during, and in the immediate aftermath of, the colonial experience. Drawing upon the writings of jurist-scholars from the HÄanaf ischool of law writing in Cairo, Kazan, Lucknow, Baghdad and Istanbul, Transformations of Tradition reveals several central shifts in Islamic legal writing that throw into doubt the possibility of reading its later trajectory through the lens of a continuous "tradition." By focusing especially on the work of MuhÄammad Bakhit al-MutÄii, Mufti of Egypt for a time and a leading scholar at the Azhar, Transformations shows that the colonial moment of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries marked a significant rupture in how Muslim jurists understood history and authority, science and technology, and religion and the secular, thereby upending the very ground upon which Islamic law had until then functioned"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Islamic law $x History $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Islamic law $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Islamic law $x Interpretation and construction. 650 0 $a Islamic civilization $x Western influences. 650 0 $a Islamic law $x Colonies $z Europe. 650 7 $a Islamic civilization $x Western influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01730303 650 7 $a Islamic law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979949 650 7 $a Islamic law $x Interpretation and construction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979955 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526013925.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A1807106CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
