Discover information, advice, and prices for Doubt in Islamic Law A sold for 134.12 $ , available in the Books & Magazines category; this product is sold by Abebooks.com and made by .
This book considers an important and largely neglected area of Islamic law by exploring how medieval Muslim jurists resolved criminal cases that could not be proven beyond a doubt Intisar A Rabb calls into question a controversial popular notion about Islamic law today which is that Islamic law is a divine legal tradition that has little room for discretion or doubt particularly in Islamic criminal law Despite its contemporary popularity that notion turns out to have been far outside the mainstream of Islamic law for most of its history Instead of rejecting doubt medieval Muslim scholars largely embraced it In fact they used doubt to enlarge their own power and to construct Islamic criminal law itself Through a close examination of legal historical and theological sources and a range of illustrative case studies this book shows that Muslim jurists developed a highly sophisticated and regulated system for dealing with Islams unique concept of doubt which evolved from the seventh to the sixteenth century

This book seeks to restore Homer to his rightful place among the principal figures in the history of political and moral philosophy Through this fresh and provocative analysis of the Iliad and the Odyssey Peter J Ahrensdorf examines Homers understanding of the best life the nature of the divine and the nature of human excellence According to Ahrensdorf Homer teaches that human greatness eclipses that of the gods that the contemplative and compassionate singer ultimately surpasses the heroic warrior in grandeur and that it is the courageously questioning Achilles not the loyal Hector or even the wily Odysseus who comes closest to the humane wisdom of Homer himself Thanks to Homer two of the distinctive features of Greek civilization are its extraordinary celebration of human excellence as can be seen in Greek athletics sculpture and nudity and its singular questioning of the divine as can be seen in Greek philosophy
