Description: Accommodating Muslims Under Common Law : A Comparative Analysis, Hardcover by Farrar, Salim; Krayem, Ghena, ISBN 0415710464, ISBN-13 9780415710466, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Th explores the relationship between Muslims, the Common Law and Shari?ah post-9/11. Th looks at the accommodation of Shari?ah Law within Western Common Law legal traditions and the role of the judiciary, in particular, in drawing boundaries for secular democratic states with Muslim populations who want resolutions to conflicts that also comply with the dictates of their faith. Salim Farrar and Ghena Krayem consider the question of recognition of Shari?ah by looking at how the flexibilities that exists in both the Common Law and Shari?ah provide unexplored avenues for navigation and accommodation. The issue is explored in a comparative context across several jurisdictions and case law is examined in the contexts of family law, business and crime from selected jurisdictions with significant Muslim minority populations including: Australia, Canada, England and Wales, and the United States. Th examines how Muslims and the broader community have framed their claims for recognition against a backdrop of terrorism fears, and how Common Law judiciaries have responded within their constitutional and statutory confines and also within the contemporary contexts of demands for equality, neutrality and universal human rights. Acknowledging the inherent pragmatism, flexibility and values of the Common Law, the authors argue that the controversial issue of accommodation of Shari?ah is not necessarily one that requires the establishment of a separate and parallel legal system.
