By examining the intersection of Islamic law, state law, religion, and culture in the Egyptian nation-building process, Recasting Islamic Law highlights how the sharia, when attached to constitutional commitments, is reshaped into modern Islamic state law.Rachel M. Scott analyzes the complex effects of constitutional commitments to the sharia in the wake of the Egyptian revolution of 2011. She argues that the sharia is not dismantled by the modern state when it is applied as modern Islamic state law but rather recast in its service. In showing the particular forms that the sharia takes when it is applied in this way, Scott pushes back against assumptions that introductions of the sharia into modern state law result either in the revival of medieval Islam or in its complete transformation. Scott engages with premodern law and with the Ottoman legal legacy on topics concerning Egypts Coptic community, womens rights, personal status law, and the relationship between religious scholars and the Supreme Constitutional Court. Recasting Islamic Law considers modern Islamic state laws discontinuities as well as its continuities with premodern sharia.
