Be it religious taxation in the form of \u003cem\u003ezakāt\u003c\/em\u003e, charitable donations in the form of \u003cem\u003eṣadaqa \u003c\/em\u003eor religious endowments (\u003cem\u003eawqāf\u003c\/em\u003e), the dowry that is paid by a man to his would-be wife in a marriage contract, or the different categories of financial compensation within Islamic criminal and tort law, the Sharia utilises money and wealth for a diverse range of functions and objectives. Some of these assume a functioning political framework involving government officials and an Islamic judiciary system, while others seem to be effective only in the pre-modern contexts in which they were conceived and implemented. This volume gathers papers from the 7\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e AMI Contemporary Fiqhī Issues Workshop exploring the efficacy of financial structures for Islamic taxes and dues. It explores the laws of religious taxation in Islam from a variety of historical, philosophical, ethical and sociological perspectives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wahid M.
