Modern Perspectives on Islamic Law

By: E. Ann Black,Hossein Esmaeili,Nadirsyah Hosen

This book presents an invaluable contribution to the debate on the compatibility of Islam and modernity. It is full of arguments and examples showing how Islam can be understood in line with modern life, human rights, democracy, the rule of law, civil society and pluralism. The three authors come from different countries, represent different gender perspectives and have a Shia, a Sunni and a non-Muslim background respectively which makes the book a unique source of information and inspiration.' Irmgard Marboe, University of Vienna, Austria This well-informed book explains, reflects on and analyses Islamic law, not only in the classical legal tradition of Sharia, but also its modern, contemporary context. The book explores the role of Islamic law in secular Western nations and reflects on the legal system of Islam in its classical context as applied in its traditional homeland of the Middle East and also in South East Asia. Written by three leading scholars from three different backgrounds: a Muslim in the Sunni tradition, a Muslim in the Shia tradition, and a non-Muslim woman the book is not only unique, but also enriched by differing insights into Islamic law. Sir William Blair provides the foreword to a book which acknowledges that Islam continues to play a vital role not just in the Middle East but across the wider world, the discussion on which the authors embark is a crucial one. The book starts with an analysis of the nature of Islamic law, its concepts, meaning and sources, as well as its development in different stages of Islamic history. This is followed by accounts of how Islamic law is being practised today. Key modern institutions are discussed, such as the parliament, judiciary, dar al-ifta, political parties, and other important organizations. It continues by analysing some key concepts in our modern times: nation-state, citizenship, ummah, dhimmah (recognition of the status of certain non-Muslims in Islamic states), and the rule of law. The book investigates how in recent times, more and more fatwas are issued collectively rather than emanating from an individual scholar. The authors then evaluate how Islamic law deals with family matters, economics, crime, property and alternative dispute resolution. Lastly, the book revisits certain contemporary issues of debate in Islamic law such as the burqa, halal food, riba (interest) and apostasy. Modern Perspectives on Islamic Law will become a standard scholarly text on Islamic law. Its wide-ranging coverage will appeal to researchers and students of Islamic law, or Islamic studies in general. Legal practitioners will also be interested in the comparative aspects of Islamic law presented in this book.

By: Nadirsyah Hosen

This book focuses on constitutional reform in Indonesia (1999-2002) from the perspective of shari'a. The study reveals one possible picture of how Islam and constitutionalism can co-exist in the same vision, not without risk of tension, but with the possibility of success.

Human Rights, Politics and Corruption in Indonesia

A Critical Reflection on the Post Soeharto Era

By: Nadirsyah Hosen

The resignation of President Soeharto in 1998 opened a new era in Indonesia.

Saring Sebelum Sharing

By: Nadirsyah Hosen

Bagaimana memahami Hadis Nabi sesuai konteks kehidupan Rasulullah Saw. dan menjadikannya aplikatif untuk zaman now? Buku ini ditulis oleh akademisi yang memiliki reputasi internasional, tetapi juga dianggap sebagai kiai muda kebanggaan para santri tradisional. Kisah interaksi Nabi dengan para sahabat dan juga dengan kalangan non-Muslim, cara Nabi memutuskan sebuah perkara, hingga dakwah beliau yang terkenal santun—lengkap dibahas dalam buku ini. Dengan merujuk ke literatur keislaman yang otoritatif, Gus Nadir (panggilan akrab Nadirsyah Hosen) mengurai problematika dan kontekstualisasi berbagai kisah Nabi dan riwayat hadis dengan cara yang unik. Kehati-hatian Gus Nadir dalam menjelajah berbagai referensi sungguh menggugah kesadaran kita untuk belajar memilah informasi dengan cara yang sama. Melalui buku Saring Sebelum Sharing, Gus Nadir mengajak kita untuk memahami teks melalui konteks, meninggalkan kebiasaan belajar instan, dan tidak mudah menghakimi yang lain hanya dari sepenggal ayat maupun hadis.
