Islamic Divorce in the 21st Century shows the wide range of Muslim
experiences in marital disputes and in seeking Islamic
divorces. For Muslims, having the ability to divorce in accordance
with Islamic law is of paramount importance. However, Muslim
experiences of divorce practice differ tremendously. The chapters
in this volume discuss Islamic divorce from West Africa to
Southeast Asia, and each story explores aspects of the everyday
realities of disputing and divorcing Muslim couples face in the
twenty-first century. The book’s cross-cultural and comparative
look at Islamic divorce indicates that Muslim divorces are impacted
by global religious discourses on Islamic authority, authenticity,
and gender;Â by global patterns of and approaches to
secularity;Â and by global economic inequalities and attendant
patterns of urbanization and migration. Studying divorce as a mode
of Islamic law in practice shows us that the Islamic legal
tradition is flexible, malleable, and context-dependent.
