{"product_id":"the-world-of-fatwas-arun-shourie-9789350293423","title":"The World Of Fatwas: Or The Shariah In Action","description":"'The World of Fatwas provides a new prism to non-Muslims for observing Islam, and holds up a mirror to Muslims, challenging them to necessary introspection for adjusting to a changing world'- J.N. Dixit, diplomat and former Indian Foreign Secretary, of Outlook Why are women 'the greatest affliction'? Why is slaughtering cows seen as a 'great Islamic act' when the Quran does not even mention it? Why must believers put down non-believers? In this meticulously researched book, Arun Shourie looks at the social, religious and political contexts of fatwas down the ages. With a mountain of fatwas as his text, he shows us the Shariah in action; he unravels the history of fatwas, and the implications that a faithful, dogmatic adherence to these Islamic decrees holds for the 'believer'. And hence for the non-believers. First published in 1995, this revised, up-to-date and expanded edition provides both Muslims and non-Muslims alike an even more clear-eyed look at the controversial world of fatwas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arun Shourie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9350293420\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789350293423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e HarperCollins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 778\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 1.72d","brand":"Arun Shourie","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43945827762431,"sku":"9789350293423","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_4b1a9a7e-1e2e-4f0c-b37a-3af6fc47a75f.jpg?v=1681509985","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-world-of-fatwas-arun-shourie-9789350293423","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
