Crimes Against Honour in Islamic/Ottoman Law: A Study Of Qadhf/Slander in Comparative Perspective
Abstract
This paper examines the concept of qadhf/defamation in the light of the judicial registers of the Bakhchisaray (Crimea) and various Istanbul law-courts. To give the reader a legal and historical background, it gives a summary of the Sunni legal doctrines. I hope this study contributes to our understanding of Sunni Islamic law and the application of the law in the qadi courts.
