Islamic foundations (waqf, pl. awqaf) have been an integral part of
Yemeni society both for managing private wealth and as a legal
frame for charity and public infrastructure. This book focuses on
four socially grounded fields of legal knowledge: fiqh,
codification, individual waqf cases, and everyday waqf-related
knowledge. It combines textual analysis with ethnography and seeks
to understand how Islamic law is approached, used, produced, and
validated in selected topics of waqf law where there are tensions
between ideals and pragmatic rules. The study analyses central
Zaydi fiqh works such as the Sharh al-azhar cluster, imamic
decrees, fatwas, and waqf documents, mostly from Zaydi, northern
Yemen.
