¹⁶ While a full etiology of Daghestani modernity is beyond this article's scope, my chronology follows the history of manuscript production delineated by Amri Shikhsaidov, who notes that the first influx of Arabic manuscripts to Daghestan was followed in the sixteenth century by a period of localization, during which “we observe a huge growth in the number of [Islamic] manuscripts due to the intensive activities of Daghestani copyists” and the increasing sophistication of Daghestani intellectual life. See his, “The Manuscript Collections in Daghestan,” in Moshe Gammer, ed., “Written Culture in Daghestan” (Helsinki: Academia Scientiarum Fennica, in press). This shift from manuscripts imported from abroad to the local production and reproduction of Islamic knowledge is one possible beginning for Daghestan early modernity. Also see note 73, below.

Al-Ghazālī states the relationship memorably, defining ^curf as a component of ^cādā, which, inasmuch as it references the “custom” of God, constitutes an Islamic version of natural law.

⁴⁶ By “sharī ^ca movement” I refer to the anticolonial jihad that was inaugurated in Daghestan in the early decades of the nineteenth century, and which, particularly under the leadership of Imām Shāmil (1797–1871), was accompanied by a more systematized (and paradigmatically modern) attempt than Daghestan had yet seen to base social life on the principles of Islamic jurisprudence.

Future references to Kemper's translation are given parenthetically. Given the Shāfi^cī orientation of traditional Daghestani jurisprudence, it is worth noting that the Shāfi^cī school was open to the use of subjective legal reasoning, which in uṣūl al-fiqh is referred to as ra'y. See Melchert, Christopher, The Formation of the Sunni Schools of Law: 9th–10th Centuries C.E. (Leiden: Brill, 1997), 87–115Google Scholar.

A fifth, Shī^ca school, native to Yemen and known as Zaydī (after the Prophet's grandson Zayd bin ^cAlī), developed a parallel discourse on the nature of Islamic authority that was crucial to the early modern turn to ijtihād and rejection of taqlīd (see below).

⁹³ Kemper, Herrschaft, 218. Kemper's argument that ijtihād was less intensively debated in Daghestan than in nineteenth-century Tatarstan (Herrschaft, 360) might be taken as an assertion that it was less widespread in Daghestan than elsewhere in the Islamic regions of the Russian Empire. Further research should deepen the textual basis for the connection between al-Quduqī's turn to ijtihād and Ghāzī Muḥammad's imposition of sharī ^ca, and compare these shifts to developments in neighboring parts of the Islamic world.

It also indicates the lingering impact of the Yemeni critique of Islamic authority that a Muslim reformist such as Yūsuf Qaraḍāwī should also make tamadhhub an object of critique in his Kayfa nata^cāmulu ma^ca al-turāth wa-al-tamadhhub wa-al-ikhtilāf?
