A 2002 analysis of Islamic law as it was imposed on the people of the medieval Maghrib.
In this 2002 book, David Powers analyses the application of Islamic law through cases which took place in the medieval Maghrib. The source for these disputes are fatwas issued by the muftis, which the author uses to situate each case in its historical context and to interpret the legal principles.
