Even though all state documents in Marwar in the second half of the eighteenth century were issued in Rajasthani, Persian-language documents continued to have an active legal life and were debated, discussed and judged through Rajasthani-language petitions and orders. A close reading of one such dispute highlights tensions over the authority of community versus documents, how new forms of state record-keeping affected the legal use of documents, and how the Rajput king’s practice of customary law led both to the interpolation of shariʿa principles into that law when applied to Muslims and to the restriction of the qazi’s jurisdiction.

有争议的交易:18 世纪马尔瓦尔的文件、语言和权威

尽管 18 世纪下半叶马尔瓦尔的所有国家文件都是在拉贾斯坦语中发布的,但波斯语文件继续具有活跃的法律生命,并通过拉贾斯坦语请愿书和命令进行辩论、讨论和判断。仔细阅读其中一个争议,可以看出社区权威与文件权威之间的紧张关系,新的国家记录保存形式如何影响文件的合法使用,以及拉其普特国王对习惯法的实践如何导致将伊斯兰教法原则插入到该法律适用于穆斯林并限制 qazi 的管辖权。
