The Islam and Human Rights Nexus
The Islam and human rights nexus is too often viewed as being static. In reality, the relationship is complex and mutable. In an era of unsettling changes to the status quo, perceptions of the Islam and human rights nexus have also proven to be sensitive to shifting political dynamics.

It is a sensitive issue that impinges on many domains—the social, religious, and political as well as the legal. The problems of reform turn more than anything else on the question of how to reconcile fidelity to Islamic law, the shari'a , which remains largely—if not exclusively—controlling on matters of per…
