520 |a Historical studies on the practice of Islamic law (sharīʻa) tend to focus on practice in a Sunni setting during the Mamluk or Ottoman periods. This book decenters Sunni and Mamluk and Ottoman normativity by investigating the practice of sharīʻa in a Twelver Shiʻi Persian-speaking milieu, in early modern Iran between the sixteenth to twentieth centuries. Drawing on documentary evidence and narrative sources, it reconstructs who the practitioners of Islamic law were, how they authenticated, annulled, and archived legal documents, and how they intervened in the resolution of disputes over religious endowments (waqf). The study demonstrates that following Iran's conversion to Twelver Shiʻism under the Safavids, the dominance of Uṣūlī Shiʻi legal theory, which conferred judicial authority on scholars recognized as Shiʻi jurists (mujathids), affected both the practitioners of Islamic law and the procedures of sharīʻa court practice in Iran. Shiʻi jurists in Iran, as a result, would come to exercise by the end of the nineteenth century a judicial monopoly over valid sharīʻa court practice thus laying the foundation for Ayatollah Khomeini's extension, during the Iranian revolution, of the authority of the Shiʻi jurist over political affairs.
