Journal Article
The Public and Private in Saudi Arabia: Restrictions on the Powers of Committees for Ordering the Good and Forbidding Evil
2003
Overview
Vogel sheds light on how Islamic law controls invasions by the state in the so-called private sphere and examines two disparate bodies of law, including the classical Islamic public doctrine and the contemporary laws and practices of Saudi Arabia. He focuses on the role of muhtasib in upholding public morality and punishing immoral behavior. Several developments in the area of public domain, particularly in the interdiction of spying, evidently show muhtasib's invasion of privacy.
