A Malikis and Hanafis in Algeria during the Ottoman era Research on the Manifestations of Peaceful Coexistence Between the two Doctrines
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study addresses some important aspects of Algeria’s doctrinal movement during the Ottoman era by providing a reading on the manifestations of peaceful coexistence between the two doctrines. As is known, the Maliki doctrine is the doctrine of jurisprudence that has been prevalent in the Middle Maghreb (Algeria) for a long time. With the arrival of the Ottomans in Algeria at the beginning of the 16th century, they brought with them the Hanafi doctrine, which they had previously adopted as their official doctrine, thus becoming the doctrine of official authority in the regency of Algeria, which was adopted by the ruling political and military class, the Kouloughlis class, and the Janissaries. This does not mean, however, that the Maliki doctrine has been marginalized by the Ottomans; on the contrary, Algeria’s indigenous inhabitants have remained Maliki in their daily, jurisprudential, and social dealings. Doctrinal coexistence emerged on more than one level, especially in the field of the judiciary and fatwas, which was characterized by the duality in its form between the Hanafis and the Malikis, as well as in the field of education, which brought together teachers and jurists of the Hanafi and Maliki doctrines in various educational institutions, with a teaching curriculum that included the jurisprudence of the two. In addition, there was a relationship of cooperation and coordination between the two doctrines in many general issues concerning Algerian society.
