Abstract

Urbanization and modern lifestyles in Cairo, Egypt, have transformed the interaction between Muslims, predominantly Shafi'i adherents, and dogs, which are traditionally considered strictly impure (najāsah mughallaẓah). This study explores this social shift using a socio-legal approach and the Fiqh Sosial (Social Fiqh) perspective of KH. M.A. Sahal Mahfudh. Data were collected through field observations in Cairo and an analysis of contemporary fatwas issued by Dār al-Iftāʾal-Miṣriyyah. The results show that the dense urban spatial reality and ecological metabolism of the metropolis create an unavoidable situation (ʿumūm al-balwā). Consequently, Shafi'i adherents pragmatically negotiate this hardship by adopting the Maliki school's view, which regards living dogs as pure. This practice of inter-madzhab concession (rukhṣah) is institutionally legitimized by Dār al-Iftāʾ, which formally allows dog ownership for specific needs and suggests the Maliki ruling to relieve public anxiety (waswas). The study concludes that Islamic law in contemporary Egypt functions not as rigid orthodoxy, but as a flexible, problem-solving instrument that accommodates cultural dynamics and public interest (maṣlahah), fostering an inclusive ecological harmony in public spaces.

Abstract

This study examines how Muslim minorities in Paris, France, negotiate religious identity and civic belonging through partnership formation, drawing on fiqh al-aqalliyyat as a normative and adaptive legal framework. This study aims to identify how the Muslim minority shaped partnership formation through the principles of fiqh of muamalah in a complex context, within the constraints of French laicite and its strategy to secure religious practice and social participation. Based on qualitative in-depth interviews and drawing on secondary ethnographic research and textual examination of Islamic legal discourse, the study demonstrates that the Muslim minority in France negotiates a hybrid identity that reconciles Islamic ethical commitments with local communities within fiqh al-aqalliyyat. It’s driven by the challenges of being a minority in partnership formation, thus becoming both a survival strategy and a site of theological reinterpretation. This article argues that partnership formation operates as both an outcome of Islamic legal adaptation and a mechanism of identity negotiation, producing hybrid forms of Muslim citizenship that remain structurally constrained by securitization and socio-spatial marginalization. The partnership is embodied in the principle of maslahah, which is the most frequently invoked interpretive tool in minority jurisprudence. In line with this, this article contributes to global Muslim minority legal studies by showing how fiqh muamalah and fiqh al-aqalliyyat operate not only as normative doctrines but also as social mechanisms for negotiating partnership, dignity, and civic belonging in secular urban contexts.
