Operating Islamic Jurisprudence In Non-Muslim Jurisdictions: Traditional Islamic Precepts And Contemporary Controversies In The United States, Mustafa R. K. Baig
Chicago-Kent Law Review
With the recent public furor in the United States regarding “Shari‘a,” studies into the content of Islamic jurisprudence concerning Muslims living under non-Muslim jurisdiction are more pertinent than ever in the U.S. context.

The paper begins by assessing how Muslim scholars viewed a Muslim’s travel to and residence in non-Muslim lands, and the obligation to abide by the laws of the land. It will focus on the jihad (siyar) section in Islamic jurisprudence and the section on …

Islamic Wakf, The, William F. Fratcher
Islamic Wakf, The, William F. Fratcher
Missouri Law Review
The institution of wakf rests upon the shari'a, the religious law of Islam.

Some discussions of the peculiarities of the shari'a will be helpful to an understanding of the law of wakf. First, the shari'a is a personal, as …
