For Muslims living in the West contemporary life presents many challenges but where to gofor solutions? Because of the absence of credible alternatives and ijtihad Muslims are fastbecoming their own muftis coming up with their own answers to daily problems. Confusedadaptive strategies are being used right across these communities leading to serious prob-lems. Yet how do we make sure that we are not crossing Muslim law? This conference aimsto bring this confusion to light and recommend possible approaches. Above all it is arguedthat we need a special fiqh, a Fiqh for Minorities, designed specifically for the needs ofMuslim communities living in the West. This conference attempts to bring Shari’ah scholarsand social scientists together to debate these issues and to work towards an interdiscipli-nary convergence.
