Reviews

“Medicine and Shariah fills an important and widely felt gap among Muslims. There have been numerous recent works on Islamic bioethics, but none as far as I am aware that specifically focus on the actual interaction between physicians and jurists. Aasim Padela is one of the foremost medical experts who has brought to the fore practical as well as institutional challenges that face Muslim physicians and patients.” —Ovamir Anjum, author of Politics, Law, and Community in Islamic Thought ""The book is well written, striking an academic and balanced tone, which cannot be said of much that passes for Islamic bioethics today. I have no doubt that Aasim Padela will be remembered as a pioneer of our field."" —Journal of Islamic Ethics ""This volume is a welcome addition to the growing body of literature on Islamic bioethics."" —Journal of the American Academy of Religion
