Abstract
The Role of the Madrasah and the Structure of Islamic Legal Education in Mamluk Egypt
(1250-1517)
By Robert Moore
The role of madrasahs in Mamluk Egypt (1250-1517) has been the subject of debate
among scholars of the period. Recent studies have deemphasized the importance of
these institutions as centers of Islamic legal education. This dissertation responds to
these assertions by looking at the influence that the growth in the number of madrasahs
had on the social status of students and professors of Islamic law and on the
development of the structure of Islamic legal education. After examining foundation
deeds of madrasahs, biographical dictionaries, pedagogical works and other sources, it
is argued that Islamic legal education had become a highly structured process and that
madrasahs had contributed to the professionalization of professors of Islamic law.
