"This is a highly promising manuscriptELThe scholarship is strong, the writing style clear, and the organization logical. The work has the potential to make a significant contribution and I recommend that OUP put it under contract."--Bill Mauer, Anthropology, University of California, Irvine."The choice of America and Great Britain is excellent. Both are important Muslim communities. Although they share similarities of faith and issues of the relationship of faith and identity, citizenship and civic values, the challenges of living in post 9/11 societies are quite different socio-economically and politicallyEL.Moore's scholarship is impeccable. Her citations and bibliography reveal a thorough grasp of the relevant religious, legal, and socialscience literature. The organization is solid. She manages to cover a great deal of important and diverse topics and not lose the readerELMoore has rapidly established herself as an important scholar." --John Esposito, Religion and International Affairs, Georgetown University, This is a highly promising manuscriptELThe scholarship is strong, the writing style clear, and the organization logical. The work has the potential to make a significant contribution and I recommend that OUP put it under contract.

Synopsis
Today there are more Muslims living in diaspora than at any time in history. This situation was not envisioned by Islamic law, which makes no provision for permanent as opposed to transient diasporic communities. Western Muslims are therefore faced with the necessity of developing an Islamic law for Muslim communities living in non-Muslim societies. In this book, Kathleen Moore explores the development of new forms of Islamic law and legal reasoning in the US and Great Britain, as well the Muslims encountering Anglo-American common law and its unfamiliar commitments to pluralism and participation, and to gender, family, and identity. The underlying context is the aftermath of 9/11 and 7/7, the two attacks that arguably recast the way the West views Muslims and Islam. Islamic jurisprudence, Moore notes, contains a number of references to various 'abodes' and a number of interpretations of how Muslims should conduct themselves within those worlds. These include the dar al harb (house of war), dar al kufr (house of unbelievers), and dar al salam (house of peace). How Islamic law interprets these determines the debates that take shape in and around Islamic legality in these spaces. Moore's analysis emphasizes the multiplicities of law, the tensions between secularism and religiosity. She is the first to offer a close examination of the emergence of a contingent legal consciousness shaped by the exceptional circumstances of being Muslim in the U.S and Britain in the 1990s and the first decade of the 21st century, Kathleen Moore explores the development of new forms of Islamic law and legal reasoning in the US and Great Britain, as well the Muslims encountering Anglo-American common law and its unfamiliar commitments to pluralism and participation, and to gender, family, and identity. The underlying context is the aftermath of 9/11 and 7/7, the two attacks that arguably recast the way the West views Muslims and Islam.

    The item was packaged very well with support so it does not bend. It came safely and was delivered as normal. It took some time but I am in a different country so that was expected. The item is as described on the pictures with no other defects. Really happy with this product and the seller.
