Abstract

Taking the example of a religious adjudicative body for Muslims in the Western Cape in South Africa, this article analyses the symbiotic working relationship between state courts and non-state dispute settlement bodies, in which the lines of interference are fluid and not always predictable. Seeing the need for adapting international legal anthropological investigative methods to the particular situation of South Africa, the author highlights the inadequacies of both the state and non-state bodies in solving religious disputes between factions seeking control over the Muslim communities and in avoiding the perpetuation of Islamic rules that discriminate against women.
