The Flexibility of Shariah (Islamic Law), with Reference to the Iranian Experience

This thesis verifies that no laws in Islam are immutable. Immutability is only applicable to faith, values and ultimate goals in Shariah. Those laws which look immutable even in ritual part of the religion are not actually immutable and are subject to change under special circumstances. Islamic laws have been developed out of certain conditions and necessities of the time and space. This flexibility must be known as the essential feature of the Islamic law. The framework for this flexibility and change has been predicted and verified in the main sources of Shariah, i.e. the Quran, the Sunnah, Ijma, Qiyas, Aql and Urf. The primary source of the Islamic law (the Quran) is, in itself, flexible on the basis of the analysis that the Quranic legislation leaves room for flexibility in the evaluation of its injunctions. The Quran is not specific on the precise value of its injunctions, and it leaves open the possibility that a command in the Quran may sometimes imply an obligation, a recommendation or a mere permissibility. Commands and prohibitions in the Quran are expressed in a variety of forms which are often open to interpretation. The main devices for change predicted in Shariah are Ijtihad, Maslaha and Al-ahkam-al-thanaviiah (secondary rules). Chapter One discusses the concept and development of Ijtihad. In Chapter Two, the role of Ijtihad in providing the Shariah with flexibility will be analysed. Chapter Three outlines how in practice Ijtihad has been effective in making the Islamic law flexible. Chapter Four is devoted to the concept of Al-ahkam-al-thanaviiah (secondary rules) as it has been developed by Muslim jurists. Chapter five will deal with the theory of Maslaha as a dynamic device in Shariah. Finally, in chapter six, the role of Al-ahkam-al-thanaviiah and Maslaha in Islamic Iranian law will be examined as it has beeen developed over the years.

The Spirit of Islamic Law

The volume outlines the prominent features of Muslim juristic thought: espousal of divine sovereignty; a fixation on divine texts; an uncompromisingly intentionalist approach to the interpretation of those texts; a frank acknowledgment of the fallibility of human endeavor to capture divine intent; a toleration of legal diversity; a moralistic bent grounded in a particular social vision; and finally, a preoccupation with the affairs of private individuals - especially family relations and contracts - coupled with a concern to define the limits of governmental power.

Social Movements and American Political Institutions

Social movements in the United States are important political actors because of their scale and duration, their generation of new ideas and understandings of existing problems, their ability to mobilize those who were previously passive citizens, and the impetus they provide for restructuring and broadening the agenda of American politics. This volume combines chapters by a distinguished group of social movement scholars, from both sociology and political science, who use perspectives ranging from political process theory to rational choice and collective action approaches to evaluate the functioning of institutions of American government and the public policies that they produce. A diverse group of movements and interests are featured: women, public interest, native America, the environment, the Christian Right, abortion, gay rights, and homelessness among them.

The Social Movement Society

Contentious Politics for a New Century

Is there more social protest now than there was prior to the movement politics of the 1960s, and if so, does it result in a distinctly less civil society throughout the world? If everybody protests, what does protest mean in advanced industrial societies? This volume brings together scholars from Europe and the U.S., and from both political science and sociology, to consider the ways in which the social movement has changed as a political form and the ways in which it continues to change the societies in which it is prevalent.
