Sharī‘a in context

One of the key differences between Islam and Christianity is their respective understandings of law. In the West, discussions about the role of faith in a secular state are beginning to take account of the significance of this difference. How does secularism relate to Christian heritage? Secondly, how far can Islamic sharī‘a be practised under and recognised within a non-Muslim legal system? This newsletter offers three studies related to this second question from different times and places.
