| Abstract
|
:
|
The role of madrasahs in Mamluk Egypt (1250-1517) has been the subject of debate among scholars of the period. Recent studies have deemphasized the importance of these institutions as centers of Islamic legal education. This dissertation responds to these assertions by looking at the influence that the growth in the number of madrasahs had on the social status of students and professors of Islamic law and on the development of the structure of Islamic legal education. After examining foundation deeds of madrasahs , biographical dictionaries, pedagogical works and other sources, it is argued that Islamic legal education had become a highly structured process and that madrasahs had contributed to the professionalization of professors of Islamic law.
