Doubt in Islamic Law: A History of Legal Maxims, Interpretation, and Islamic Criminal Law - Cambridge Studies in Islamic Civilization
Rabb, Intisar A. (Harvard Law School, Massachusetts)
Through a close examination of legal, historical, and theological sources, this book considers a largely neglected area of Islamic law, calling 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.
