Islamic Law and Legal Authority in Inner Asia Under Russian Imperial Rule
This article presents a historiographical survey of scholarship on Islamic law and legal authority in Central/Inner Asia under Russian Imperial rule. It analyzes the debates, paradigms and assumptions that have dominated the field up to the present. The binaries that have dominated the field—between cooperation and insulation, rupture and continuity—disguise the complex legal history of the region. The historiography has shifted to emphasize a mo…
Divide According to Sharīʿa
Until the end of the imperial period, the Volga-Ural Muslim communities in the Russian empire practiced several methods of intergenerational property transfer, such as waṣiyyat (bequest), hiba (gift), ṣulḥ/takhāruj (peaceful settlement) and the "science of the shares" (ʿilm al-farāʾiḍ). The Volga-Ural Muslims considered them all as legitimate ways of property division according to Islamic law (sharīʿa). However, a significant shift occurred in th…
Transformation of a Mosque into a Shrine. The Role of Material Culture, Sacred Stories and a Female Shrine Keeper in Preserving Islamic Life in Soviet and Post-Soviet Kazakhstan
This paper analyzes oral narratives which developed around a mosque in northeastern Kazakhstan and the role that these narratives and the building of the mosque played in the resilience and survival of Islam in the Soviet and post-Soviet times. The mosque is in the village of Akkulsk not far from the city of Semey. It was built around 1905, was repurposed as a school and club under Soviet rule and subsequently was neglected in the later Soviet pe…
Divorce from Missing Husbands
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century,1 Muslim communities in different parts of the world faced a common problem—women’s inability to obtain divorce after their husbands went missing. These women, deprived of provision ( nafaqa ), could neither sustain themselves financially nor remarry. In response to this situation, Muslim scholars, in their respective communities (Egypt, Ottoman Syria, British India and the Russian empire), produ…
From kolkHoz to pulpit
This article focuses on the life and activities of Rashida Iskhaki, an ordinary Soviet woman from a kolkhoz near Kazan who became one of the most authoritative religious figures in Soviet and post-Soviet Tatarstan. Her path-breaking career demonstrates the development of the institution of female religious authority, abïstay, in post-WWII Russia and under the anti-religious Soviet regime. While the male religious elite was decimated before the wa…
Аккульская мечеть в постcоветском Казахстане
Аккульская мечеть, расположенная примерно в 30 километрах от города Семей на северо-востоке Казахстана, была построена между 1905 и 1907 гг. С установлением Советской власти здание мечети было передано под нужды школы и дома культуры и перестало функционировать как мечеть. В 1970-е годы, наряду с процессом вымирания деревни, здание мечети начало ветшать, и на данный момент находится в критической ситуации. Несмотря на процесс обветшания, люди про…
Shari’a and ‘traditional Tatar Islam’
Like all the elites of post-Soviet Muslim countries, the political elite and religious officials in Russia have been in the search of a moderate and strictly national Islamic identity, to keep the Muslim population of Russia separate from Arab or Turkish versions of Islam that could be politicised and thus had the potential to undermine the state structure. ‘Tatar traditional Islam’ emerged through this framework
Married or not Married? On the Obligatory Registration of Muslim Marriages in Nineteenth-Century Russia
The registration and regulation of marriage was one aspect of the Russian empire's modernization policies in the nineteenth century. Efforts by Russian state authorities to establish better control over their subjects through the registration and regulation of marriages created new questions and problems for the Muslim community and its understanding of the legality of marriage. This article focuses on the complications created by modern governan…
Muslim Female Religious Authority in Russia
On 11 May 1917, the participants of the All-Russia Muslim Congress elected a woman, Mukhlisa Bubi, as a qāḍī (a Muslim judge) to the Central Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Inner Russia and Siberia. Granting legal authority to a woman at a central religious institution was unprecedented in the Muslim world. This article explores how this election was possible in Russia and suggests that it was the outcome of several factors. First, Muslim …
The Protectors of Religion and Community
As in many Muslim societies of the twentieth century, the Volga-Ural traditionalist ulama of late imperial Russia were often portrayed as reactionary, backward, and unaware of contemporary changes. While scholars have challenged this dichotomy and begun to address various aspects of traditionalist thought in one way or another, this article aims to understand the ulama's views on "progress" (taraqqī) and how the ulama dealt with change. I argue t…
Becoming Muslim in imperial Russia
In this much-needed and fascinating study, Agnes Nilufer Kefeli unravels a story of the Krashens, baptized Tatars who apostatized in masses throughout the long nineteenth century. How and why this
