Narratives of Truth in Islamic Law
<div><div>The truth, in legal terms, is the version of what happened which carries most authority. This original and thought-provoking book looks at how this narrative is constructed in Muslim societies, and which truths are privileged over others in constructing it. Looking at a range of contrasting case studies, from Sharia courts to inquiries into police abuse, this book explores how ordinary stories are transformed into authoritative truths. <br></div></div>
