Series Statement: Law, Governance, and Development

Content: This volume provides new insights in the concept of shari'a in the West, and sets out a framework of how shari'a in the West can be studied. The premise of this volume is that one needs to focus on the question 'What do Muslims do in terms of shari'a?' rather than 'What is shari'a?'. This perspective shows that the practice of Sharia is restricted to a limited set of rules that mainly relate to religious rituals, family law and social interaction. The framework of this volume then continues to explore two more interactions: the Western responses to these practices of shari'a and, in turn, the Muslim legal reaction to these responses.

Content: Shari'a, the framework of Islamic rules and norms, governs many aspects of human behavior. The contributors to Applying Shari'a in the West examine in depth how Muslims in the West shape their normative behavior on the basis of Shari'a and how Western societies and legal systems react thereto. With its explicit focus on social and family relations, these country and thematic studies provide a timely overview of the current state of Shari'a and outline aspects of possible future developments, studies, and policies
