The Anthropology of Islamic Law shows how hermeneutic theory and
practice theory can be brought together to analyze cultural, legal,
and religious traditions. These ideas are developed through an
analysis of the Islamic legal tradition, which examines both
Islamic legal doctrine and religious education. The book combines
anthropology and Islamicist history, using ethnography and in-depth
analysis of Arabic religious texts. The book focuses on higher
religious learning in contemporary Egypt, examining its
intellectual, ethical, and pedagogical dimensions. Data is drawn
from fieldwork inside al-Azhar University, Cairo University's Dar
al-Ulum, and the network of traditional study circles associated
with the al-Azhar mosque. Together these sites constitute the most
important venue for the transmission of religious learning in the
contemporary Muslim world. The book gives special attention to
contemporary Egypt, and also provides a broader analysis relevant
to Islamic legal doctrine and religious education throughout
history.
