It shows how an oral normative tradition embedded in communal practice was transformed into a systematic legal science defined by hermeneutic analysis of a clearly demarcated scriptural canon. This transformation was inaugurated by the innovative legal theory of MuhÌ£ammad b. IdriÌs al-ShaÌfi{u02BF}iÌ (d. 820 CE), and it took place against the background of a crisis of identity and religious authority in ninth-century Egypt. By tracing the formulation, reception, interpretation, and spread of al-ShaÌfi{u02BF}iÌ's ideas, the author demonstrates how the canonization of scripture that lay at the heart of al-ShaÌfi{u02BF}iÌ's theory formed the basis for the emergence of legal hermeneutics, the formation of the Sunni schools of law, and the creation of a shared methodological basis in Muslim thought." - from publisher. 650 0 $a Islamic law $x History. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008104954 650 0 $a Canonization. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85019662 650 7 $a Canonization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00845944 650 7 $a Islamic law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00979949 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217025041.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B490A212ED2F11E78644BA0B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
