In Islamic Legal Thought: A Compendium of Muslim Jurists, twenty-three scholars each contribute a chapter on a distinguished Muslim jurist. The volume is organized chronologically and it includes jurists who represent the formative, classical and modern periods of Islamic legal thought. Each chapter contains both a biography of an individual jurist and a translated sample of his work. The biographies emphasize the scholarly milieu in which the jurist worked-his teachers, colleagues and pupils, as well as the type of juridical thinking for which he is best known. The translated sample highlights the contribution of each jurist to the evolution of both the method and the methodology of Islamic jurisprudence. The introduction by the volume's three editors, Oussama Arabi, David S. Powers and Susan A. Spectorsky, provides a concise overview of the contents.
Contributors include: Oussama Arabi, Murteza Bedir, Jonathan E. Brockopp, Robert Gleave, Camilo Gomez-Rivas, Mahmoud O. Haddad, Peter C. Hennigan, Colin Imber, Samir Kaddouri, Aharon Layish, Joseph E. Lowry, Muhammad Khalid Masud, Ebrahim Moosa, David S. Powers, Yossef Rapoport, Delfina Serrano Ruano, Susan A. Spectorsky, Devin J. Stewart, Osman Tastan, Etty Terem, Nurit Tsafrir, Bernard G. Weiss, Hiroyuki Yanagihashi.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Islamic Legal Thought is a well-rounded survey of the history of Islamic law. Its scope is broad and the individual chapters are, on balance, well-structured and give the reader a good introduction to the life and thought of the scholar under consideration." - Felicitas Opwis, in: Ilahiyat Studies 9.2 (2018), 293-297
"...this book is a significant landmark in the representation of Islamic legal thought and its history. Its scope and scale by themselves demonstrate its monumentality [...]. In conclusion, this volume is a major contribution." - Scott Morrison, in: The Cambridge Law Journal 73.2 (2014), p. 446-449
"... a major contribution to the field. [...] While the volume as a whole will appeal primarily to specialists in Islamic legal history, the individual chapters are engaging and accessible enough for use in the classroom and by non-specialists." - Jocelyn Hendrickson, in: Journal of Near Eastern Studies 74.2 (2015) p. 383-386
"On saura gre aux Ed. de ce volume d'avoir mis a la disposition des etudiants et des chercheurs un instrument de travail aussi stimulant qu'utile." - J. Dean, in: Revue d'histoire et de philosophie religieuses2014, Tome 94 n degrees 4, p. 493-494
