Between Community and Qānūn: Documenting Islamic Legal Practice in Nineteenth-century British India

This dissertation traces the modernization of Islamic legal practice in nineteenth- and twentieth-century South Asia by considering the relationship between colonial bureaucracy and local legal procedure. Focusing on the formalization and professionalization of the offices of the qāzī (Islamic judge) and muftī (jurisconsult; writer of legal opinions, fatwās), “Between Community and Qānūn” contends that the bureaucratization of legal procedure introduced new modes of legal activity that rendered Islamic law legible and relevant to the modern nation state. Traditionally, scholars have characterized South Asian legal history in terms of increasing Anglicization and codification, drawing attention to the colonial construction of law and the influence of knowledge-production projects like compilation, translation, and legislation. Though these projects had significant influence on the shape of the legal system, such attention to legislative efforts to segregate, systematize, and standardize legal practice has promoted a top-down understanding of law and legal activity throughout this period. By focusing on local practitioners like the qāzī, this dissertation takes a law and society approach to the study of colonial legal change to highlight the effects of authoring agreements, documenting exchanges, and recording everyday personal and familial affairs on ordinary individuals’ understandings of and interactions with the legal system.

Islam, Law and the State in Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia has the world's largest Muslim population - Indonesia alone is home to more Muslims than the entire Middle East - yet nowhere in the region has a theocratic government emerged. Instead, Southeast Asian Islam is characterized by heterodox local traditions. Muslim societies today are torn between radical Islamist reformers calling for Shari'ah law and secular governments using law to contain and co-opt it. The result is a tension between state laws and institutions and Islamic alternatives. These three volumes provide an up-to-date, expert account of this complex contest across contemporary Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Brunei in a comprehensive form not attempted for decades, including coverage on a range of areas including legal doctrine, substantive laws, judicial decision-making, the administration of religion, intellectual debate, and state policy developments.

Islam, Law and the State in Southeast Asia Volume 1

Indonesia

A thorough and detailed survey of Islam and the law in Indonesia today is long overdue. This volume offers an expert and systematic update of the interaction of Islam and positive law (substantive regulations and institutions) in contemporary Indonesia, where Islamic law has developed within a state-approved and secularizing bureaucratic structure that valorized local traditions over the scriptures of Islam. Successive governments have sought to integrate Islam into the framework of a secular national ideology, albeit in contested form, with constant ideological debates over relevance and content. The result is an increasingly complex mixture of local traditions and norms and state secularism, with growing social and political pressure for an orthodoxy modeled more closely on Arab cultures. Based on extensive fieldwork, this volume gives a detailed account of current debates, legal institutions, and substantive laws, explicitly asking whether a uniquely Indonesian approach to Shari'ah can be identified, as many local Muslim leaders have long argued is the case.
