religious scholars, the dynamics of Shari’a courts, Shari’a and multiple belongings, and transnational loyalties. Functioning as a comprehensive reader and handbook, the book offers non-experts a comprehensive understanding of the meaning and relevance of Shari’a in Western contexts, exploring how Muslims interpret and apply its principles in their lived experiences and challenging the one-dimensional narratives.

Sokolova-Shipoli has a Ph.D. in Political Science and International Relations and is currently a Visiting Scholar in the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University.
