| Tartalmi kivonat: | This paper explores the idea of a reformed sharia and its potential for redefining ecumenism and engagement with everyday Islam in Europe. It builds its argument on interviews conducted with the founder of the Hungarian Muslim community Balázs Mihálffy. He promotes an ambitious reform project of Islamic law, in his 2428-page Quran commentary, and throughout his life trajectory of ecumenism and work on sharia. Mihálffy’s understanding of sharia as a solution to the predicaments of Islam and Europe, which comes at a critical time, is presented and analyzed here in both its resources and limits. We also examine his sharia claim in the current debates of the anthropology of Islam in Europe, the context of Islam in Hungary and the reception of sharia-claims by European lawyers and institutions. |
