Islamic Law on Peasant Usufruct in Ottoman Syria

17th to Early 19th Century

Drawing on Hanafi legal texts from Ottoman Syria between the 17th and early 19th centuries, this book examines how jurists balanced the rights and obligations of tenants and landlords on state and waqf lands, contributing in the process to the dynamism of the law and the adaptability and longevity of the Ottoman land system.

However, the evolution of the qanūn-sharīʿa relationship, particularly after the
sixteenth century, has also been characterized by instances of tension, with
Islamic legal officials either directly or indirectly challenging the jurisdiction of
qanūn.
