Book Synopsis The History of an Islamic School of Law by : Nurit Tsafrir
Book excerpt: So closely is the early development of the Hanafi school interwoven with non-legal spheres--the political, social, and theological--that its study is essential to a proper understanding of medieval Islamic history. Tsafrir offers a thorough examination of the first century and a half of the school's existence, the period during which it took shape.
