Bringing together authoritative voices and emerging scholars, from both ‘traditional’ seminaries and ‘Western’ academies, the distinct critical insider and emic accounts provided develop a novel avenue in Islamic legal studies. Contextualised through reference to the history of Shīʿī legal theory as well as contemporary juristic practice and socio-political considerations, the volume demonstrates how one of the most intellectually vibrant and developed discourses of Islamic thought continues to be a key forum for exploring visions of Sharīʿa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface  Notes on Contributors  Visions of Sharīʿa: An Introduction   Ali-Reza Bhojani    1 The Reception of Factuality (taṣwīb) Theories of Ijtihād in Modern Uṣūlī Shīʿī Thought   Seyyed Mostafa Mohaghegh Damad    2 Reassessing the Pivotal Role of Certainty in Modern Shīʿī Uṣūlī Legal Method: A Case for Accepting a Wider Range of Evidence in the Inference of Sharīʿa Precepts   Hashim Bata    3 The Role of the Quran in Legal Reasoning (Ijtihād): A Shīʿī Perspective   Rahim Nobahar    4 From Theory to Practice: The Role of the Subject in the Derivation of Rulings and Its Potential in Creating a System of Case Law for the Operation of Shīʿī Law   Imranali Panjwani    5 Strategic Juristic Omission and the Non-Muslim Blood Price: An Examination of Shīʿī Fiqh and Practice   Haider Ala Hamoudi    6 Towards the Hermeneutics of a Justice-Oriented Reading of Sharīʿa   Ali-Reza Bhojani    7 Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa Discourse in Contemporary Shīʿī Jurisprudence   Hassan Beloushi    Epilogue   Robert Gleave    Appendix: al-Sayyid ʿAlī al-Ḥusaynī al-Sīstānī on Uṣūl al-fiqh in Twelver Shīʿī Thought: Its Importance and Historical Phases   Ali-Reza Bhojani    Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210758021463,"sku":"9789004378384","price":110.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/visions-of-shari-a-contemporary-discussions-in-shi-i-legal-theory-9789004378384","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
