Résumé
Based on research at Jerba and Zanzibar. Deals in part with the issue of whether al-Ibāḍiyya forms part of al-Khārijiyya. Gives considerations about what al-Ibāḍiyya really is. Among the author’s sources are Muʿammar 1988 and Quṭbiyya 1992.
P. 140 note 28: while Sachau 1894 could write at the end of the nineteenth century that Zanzibar had eight Ibāḍī and two Shāfiʿī judges, presently there is one judge for each of the ten districts plus a chief Qāḍī and an assistant chief Qāḍī, which makes a total of 12 judges, the majority of whom are Shāfiʿīs. And to make the task of the Zanzibari legal counsellors even more difficult, they not only have to keep up with the latest Ibāḍī scholarship but also be informed in the doctrines of the other Muslim minorities, such as the Shīʿite ones.
Stockreiter 2002, 52, writes that after the revolution, which put an end to the reign of the Sultan, Ibāḍī judges and Ibāḍī courts were abolished.
