About the University/Organization
The Legal Transformation in Muslim Societies (LTIMS) is a Scopus-indexed, peer-reviewed quarterly journal published by Revival Press Limited, UK. The journal serves as a global platform for exploring the transformation of legal systems in Muslim societies, with a focus on reform, diversity, and cross-cultural interactions in Islamic law.
Through original scholarship and critical commentary, LTIMS addresses contemporary debates on legal pluralism, modernisation, comparative law, governance, socio-economic justice, and the intersections of Islamic and non-Islamic legal frameworks.
About the Event
The journal has announced a Special Issue titled:
“The Jurisprudence of Giving: Islamic Charity and Socio-Legal Transformation.”
This issue explores how Zakat, Sadaqah, and Waqf—core Islamic charitable practices—intersect with law, ethics, governance, digital innovation, and social justice.
It seeks to revisit the classical doctrines of Islamic charity while engaging with modern transformations, including state regulation, fintech innovations, refugee relief, sustainable development, and accountability in waqf institutions.
