520    Justice is considered the basic norm of human coexistence.
       Every legal order refers to the concept of justice, and 
       Muslims also regard their religious norms (the Sharia) as 
       offering just solutions to legal questions. But is the 
       assumption that the Sharia is just merely an acceptance of
       a status quo correct? And is justice the necessary aim of 
       the Sharia? In this volume, renowned scholars discuss 
       these questions from different perspectives. In principle,
       the first normative source of Islam, the Qur'an, orders 
       justice and fair conduct (Rohe). At the same time, an 
       analysis of the concept of justice in the classical age of
       Islam (Ahmed and Poya) also shows that there existed 
       ambivalent understandings of this concept. The 
       relationship of the idea of justice in Islam to political 
       questions (Ende), to war (Poya), and to modern reform (Mir
       -Hosseini) again confirms the importance of the concept 
       for a critical reflection on traditional assumptions and 
       existing circumstances. The discussion on the hijab in 
       Western countries (Ladwig) shows paradigmatically how 
       justice can regulate the relationship between the secular 
       state and the Sharia. The essays in this volume endeavor 
       to show that debates about justice, in Islam as well, 
       express an underlying tension between the perception of an
       order as just on the one hand, and the feeling of 
       injustice under the same order on the other. This 
       discussion validates the idea that justice should be 
       understood as a concept subject to a perpetual 
       reexamination according to changing times and 
       circumstances.
