Through penetrating analysis across multiple languages and genres, she shows how these figures interwove colonial and Islamic epistemologies in ways that remain deeply relevant today." --Julia Stephens, author of Governing Islam: Law, Empire, and Secularism in Modern South Asia "Of all the studies of Anglo-Muhammadan law, this is the most innovative and illuminating.
