For the first time, the author has explored the intertwinement of
written law, Islamic law, and customary law in the highly complex
Afghan society, being deeply influenced by traditional cultural and
religious convictions. Given these facts, the author explores how
to bridge the exigencies of a human rights-driven penal law and
conflicting social norms and understandings by using the rich
tradition of Islamic law and its possible openness for contemporary
rule of law standards. This work is based on ample field research
in connection with a thorough analysis of the normative contexts.
It is a landmark, since it offers broadly acceptable and thus
feasible solutions for the Afghan legal practice. The book is of
equal interest for scientists and practitioners interested in
legal, religious, social, and political developments concerning
human rights and regional traditions in the MENA region, in
Afghanistan in particular.
