While the reasons for opposition to sharia processes are complex, they often feature the concern that sharia processes disadvantage Muslim women. However, to date there has been inadequate attention to the experiences of participants in sharia processes. The book will address two key questions namely; how liberal legal systems like Australia's should respond to sharia processes, and more specifically; how it can best respond to the needs of Muslim women who use these processes. In doing so, this book offers unique evidence to inform future policy developments in Australia that will also have implications for other liberal jurisdictions. In this way, this book makes a significant contribution to the international discussion and response to sharia processes"--Provided by publisher.Islamic lawNon-Islamic countriesDomestic relations (Islamic law)Non-Islamic countriesDomestic relations (Islamic law)AustraliaIslamic lawDomestic relations (Islamic law)Domestic relations (Islamic law)340.59Ahmed Farrah1278660Krayem GhenaNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910774898703321Understanding sharia processes3013680UNINA
