The effects of contract modifications on Shari'ah compliant products in the United StatesWali-Uddin, Abdullah Mahdi 04 1900 (has links)
Islamic banking in the United States of America, became recognized as an
alternative to expand into the market of traditional Muslim consumers, living in
the United States. Because of strict regulatory guidelines, no Islamic banks
exist in the United States. Instead, conventional banks, Islāmic banking
windows (IBW) and other financial institutions offer Shari‘ah compliant products
by modifying classical Islamic contracts or attaching a rider to define contract
verbiage. This study reviewed techniques of adapting contracts used for
Shari‘ah compliant products in the United States to determine if the contracts
maintain the true characteristics of the original classical Islamic contracts.
Contracts in Islamic sacred law provide protections by ensuring wealth is not
wasted, and no injustice is performed by either of the contracting parties.
Wealth protection and justice are the inherit characteristics of contracts in the
Islāmic law. Any changes or modifications may void or decrease the protections
provided in Islamic law. This research reviewed the theoretical aspects of
contract modifications, by analyzing the procedures used for the derivative
Shari‘ah compliant product contracts used in the Islamic finance industry in
the United States. Data was evaluated and compared with the requirements of
classical Islamic contract equivalents, to determine the effects of these
changes. / Religious Studies and Arabic / D. Phil. (Religious Studies)

Recognizing rapeLane, Julie Dawn 16 October 2012 (has links)
During the second-wave feminist movement, anti-rape activists sought to heighten cultural awareness about the pervasiveness of rape and instigate legal reforms that would increase the number of prosecutions and convictions of rapists. Despite resulting legal reforms that expanded the definition of "rape" and that eliminated resistance requirements and marital exemptions, reform efforts have been a failure in terms of increased reporting and achieving heightened response from the criminal justice system. I attribute the ineffectiveness of rape law reforms partially to the way in which the concept of rape was framed during the anti-rape movement. In particular, I argue that broadening the concept, detaching it from its sexual features, and paralleling the phenomenon to other violations such as property and assault have the effect of obscuring the unique indignity of rape. This, in turn, has inhibited the full legal recognition of the victim and her injury. I explore possibilities for an alternative conceptualization of rape that instead acknowledges and accommodates the distinctive features of the phenomenon in terms of sexuality, embodied differences of gender and race, subjective states of submission, and the encompassing nature of the injury as a violation of the integrity of self in both bodily and psychological dimensions. In order to enhance the recognition of the victim and her injury, I suggest that: a) legal discourse should be opened up to better account for concrete circumstances and embodied differences (as opposed to the reliance on abstract rights and principles and the generalized subject); b) victims should be allowed to provide an uninterrupted narrative of their rape experience and its consequences; and, c) "consent" as the predominant guiding legal standard should be reevaluated and replaced with an assessment of how force was subjectively experienced. / text
