The creation of a national school of Islamic law in Indonesia has
been on the legal agenda for the past fifty years. This book is a
summary of what has been achieved. The material shows us a complex
range of references for syariah. These include the formal
structures of a "new fiqh," philosophies of law, transmissions of
syariah through tertiary curricula and the Friday sermon in
mosques, a bureaucratic form for conducting the Hajj, and
contemporary debates on syariah values as expressions of public
morality. Together these references indicate just how elusive the
meaning of syariah has become in contemporary Indonesia.
