Collective Liability in Islam

The ‘Aqila and Blood Money Payments

Contenu

Offering the first close analysis of the 'Aqila, a group jointly liable for blood money payments on behalf of its members, this study traces the transformation of this important institution from pre-Islamic custom to the Shari'a, and follows its further re-shaping through the modern period, in relation to Islamic religion, state, and society.
