             Post-Colonial Challenges Muslim Family Law in Sub-Saharan
             Africa: Colonial Legacies and Post-Colonial Challenges
             offers comparative historical, anthropological and legal
             perspectives on the ways in which French and British
             colonial administrations interacted with the diversity of
             Islamic legal schools, scholars, and practices in Africa.
             The authors examine how the colonial impress marks Islamic
             legal practices in Africa and its impact on the
             post-colonial and contemporary periods. Several chapters
             document the experiences of Muslim citizens in some African
             states in their bid to have Islamic law, particularly family
             law, recognized. A substantial introduction sets the
             individual essays in a comparative framework of Islamic
             legal scholarship in an era of colonialism by contrasting
             and comparing vital questions as they occur in the African
             context. Shamil Jeppie is associate professor in the

   Abstract = {Politics is regarded as a science for it tells us what to
             do, when it deals with measurable concepts. But politics is
             also an art—a form of practice, telling us how and when to
             do things. Lest we forget, the arts of persuasion and
             inspiration are part of politics. And, every art also
             produces an aesthetic. By aesthetics I mean, the ways by
             which we think about art: recall, art is what we do and how
             we do things. Th ose things and acts that become visible
             when we do and produce certain actions—jubilation,
             conversations, speeches, greetings, protests, banners,
             deaths, wounds and other expressions—all constitute the
             means by which thought becomes visible, effective, and
             sensible. These forms and visible expressions of the
             sensible constitute the aesthetics of politics. Only the
             patient will know where the momentum for change in the Arab
             world is heading. But, if the outcome of the Arab uprisings
             is unclear, then there is one certainty: the people have
             changed the order of the sensible. Thanks to peaceful
             protests in the face of regime brutality, tens of millions
             of people have performed change in myriads of expressions:
             aesthetics. Their feelings have cumulatively changed, and
             how people feel about governance is ultimately what politics
             is all about.},

   Title = {Brain Death in Islamic Ethico-Legal Deliberation: Challenges
             for Applied Islamic Bioethics},
   Journal = {Bioethics},
   Publisher = {Blackwell},
   Year = {2011},
   Month = {December},
   ISSN = {1467-8519},
   url = {http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com.proxy.lib.duke.edu/doi/10.1111/j.1467-8519.2011.01935.x/pdf},
   Keywords = {bioethics • brain death • Muslim ethics •
             Islamic ethics},
   Abstract = {Since the 1980s, Islamic scholars and medical experts have
             used the tools of Islamic law to formulate ethico-legal
             opinions on brain death. These assessments have varied in
             their determinations and remain controversial. Some
             juridical councils such as the Organization of Islamic
             Conferences' Islamic Fiqh Academy (OIC-IFA) equate brain
             death with cardiopulmonary death, while others such as the
             Islamic Organization of Medical Sciences (IOMS) analogize
             brain death to an intermediate state between life and death.
             Still other councils have repudiated the notion entirely.
             Similarly, the ethico-legal assessments are not uniform in
             their acceptance of brain-stem or whole-brain criteria for
             death, and consequently their conceptualizations of, brain
             death. Within the medical literature, and in the statements
             of Muslim medical professional societies, brain death has
             been viewed as sanctioned by Islamic law with experts citing
             the aforementioned rulings. Furthermore, health policies
             around organ transplantation and end-of-life care within the
             Muslim world have been crafted with consideration of these
             representative religious determinations made by
             transnational, legally-inclusive, and multidisciplinary
             councils. The determinations of these councils also have
             bearing upon Muslim clinicians and patients who encounter
             the challenges of brain death at the bedside. For those
             searching for ‘Islamically-sanctioned’ responses that
             can inform their practice, both the OIC-IFA and IOMS
             verdicts have palpable gaps in their assessments and remain
             clinically ambiguous. In this paper we analyze these
             verdicts from the perspective of applied Islamic bioethics
             and raise several questions that, if answered by future
             juridical councils, will better meet the needs of clinicians
             and bioethicists.},

   Abstract = {The field of medicine provides an important window through
             which to examine the encounters between religion and
             science, and between modernity and tradition. While both
             religion and science consider health to be a ‘good’ that
             is to be preserved, and promoted, religious and science
             based teachings may differ in their conception of what
             constitutes good health, and how that health is to be
             achieved. This paper analyzes the way the Islamic
             ethico-legal tradition assesses the permissibility of using
             vaccines that contain porcine-derived components by
             referencing opinions of several Islamic authorities. In the
             Islamic ethico-legal tradition controversy surrounds the use
             of proteins from an animal (pig) that is considered to be
             impure by Islamic law. As we discuss the Islamic
             ethico-legal constructs used to argue for or against the use
             of porcine-based vaccines we will call attention to areas
             where modern medical data may make the arguments more
             precise. By highlighting areas where science can buttress
             and clarify the ethico-legal arguments we hope to spur an
             enhanced applied Islamic bioethics discourse where religious
             scholars and medical experts use modern science in a way
             that remains faithful to the epistemology of Islamic ethics
             to clarify what Islam requires of Muslim patients and
             healthcare workers.},

   Year = {2009},
   Abstract = {Recent events have focused attention on the perceived
             differences and tensions between the Muslim world and the
             modern West. As a major strand of Western public discourse
             has it, Islam appears resistant to internal development and
             remains inherently pre-modern. However Muslim societies have
             experienced most of the same structural changes that have
             impacted upon all societies: massive urbanisation, mass
             education, dramatically increased communication, the
             emergence of new types of institutions and associations,
             some measure of political mobilisation, and major
             transformations of the economy. These developments are
             accompanied by a wide range of social movements and by
             complex and varied religious and ideological debates. This
             textbook is a pioneering study providing an introduction to
             and overview of the debates and questions that have emerged
             regarding Islam and modernity. Key issues are selected to
             give readers an understanding of the complexity of the
             phenomenon from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. The
             various manifestations of modernity in Muslim life discussed
             include social change and the transformation of political
             and religious institutions, gender politics, changing legal
             regimes, devotional practices and forms of religious
             association, shifts in religious authority, and modern
             developments in Muslim religious thought. Key Features *Each

             biotechnology has surpassed science fiction with such feats
             as putting fish genes in tomatoes to create a more
             cold-resistant crop. While the environmental and health
             concerns over such genetically modified foods have been the
             subject of public debate, religious and spiritual viewpoints
             have been given short shrift. This book seeks to understand
             the moral and religious attitudes of groups within
             pluralistic societies whose traditions and beliefs raise for
             them unique questions about food and dietary practice. What
             questions are there for kosher Jews, halal Muslims, and
             vegetarian Hindus about food products containing transgenes
             from prohibited sources? How do these foods impact the
             cultural practices and spiritual teachings of indigenous
             peoples? Concerns from the above traditions as well as
             Christianity, Buddhism, Chinese religion, and ethical
             vegetarianism are included. Contributors look at the ethical
             context of each tradition and also include information from
             focus groups. This enlightening work concludes with
             recommendations for the labeling of genetically modified

   Abstract = {This volume of Princeton Readings in Religions brings
             together the work of more than thirty scholars of Islam and
             Muslim societies in South Asia to create a rich anthology of
             primary texts that contributes to a new appreciation of the
             lived religious and cultural experiences of the world's
             largest population of Muslims. The thirty-four
             selections--translated from Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Bengali,
             Tamil, Gujarati, Hindavi, Dakhani, and other
             languages--highlight a wide variety of genres, many rarely
             found in standard accounts of Islamic practice, from oral
             narratives to elite guidance manuals, from devotional songs
             to secular judicial decisions arbitrating Islamic law, and
             from political posters to a discussion among college women
             affiliated with an "Islamist" organization. Drawn from
             premodern texts, modern pamphlets, government and
             organizational archives, new media, and contemporary
             fieldwork, the selections reflect the rich diversity of
             Islamic belief and practice in South Asia. Each reading is
             introduced with a brief contextual note from its
             scholar-translator, and Barbara Metcalf introduces the whole
             volume with a substantial historical overview.

   Abstract = {Abstract Muslim ethics is cautiously engaging developments
             in neuroscience. In their encounters with developments in
             neuroscience such as brain death and functional magnetic
             resonance imaging procedures, Muslim ethicists might be on
             the cusp of spirited debates. Science and religion perform
             different kinds of work and ought not to be conflated.
             Cultural translation is central to negotiating the complex
             life worlds of religious communities, Muslims included.
             Cultural translation involves lived encounters with
             modernity and its byproduct, modern science. Serious ethical
             debate requires more than just a mere instrumental encounter
             with science. A robust Muslim approach to neuroethics might
             require an emulsion of religion and neuroscience, thought
             and body, and body and soul. Yet one must anticipate that
             Muslim debates in neuroethics will be inflected with Muslim
             values, symbols and the discrete faith perspectives of this
             tradition with meanings that are specific to people who
             share this worldview and their concerns.},
