Abstract

The main topic of this work is related to the Sharia marriage law. The work has been divided into three parts, the organisation of the Sharia courts and application of the Sharia law, the procedure of joining two people in marriage and ending a marriage. The subject of the research concerns the time period during the Austro Hungarian Monarchy and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia when the Sharia law was implemented to regulate the private law relations amongst Muslims. Taking into consideration that Islam was one of the accepted religions during this period, the religious rules are separated from the state rules and according to that the Sharia courts have continued their existence, which were established on the grounds of Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Ottoman Empire. According to the norms of the Sharia law the Sharia courts were resolving the private law relations amongst Muslims. With the aim to present a full review on this topic various court decisions have been researched in the Archives of the Tuzla Canton and which are related to the Kotar Sharia court Tuzla 1899 – 1944.
