The European Court Of Human Rights And Intragroup Religious Diversity: A Critical Review, Lourdes Peroni
Chicago-Kent Law Review

Part II examines the background of Shari’a and its provisions regarding disability. Part III compares the treatment of the disabled under Islamic law with that required by the CRPD in order to gage consistency. Where tensions exist, alternative interpretations of both Islamic law and the CPRD are proposed that might facilitate …
