Onderwerp: [INDOLOGY] Contact information for scholars of 11th century Sharia law

 

Dear Indologists,

 

There is a person who is mentioned in a Cōḻa Tamil inscription of the early 11th century. His name is Cōṉakaṉ Cāvūr Parañcōti. Cōṉakaṉ means he was probably a Muslim or Arab Muslim. I need to contact a scholar of Sharia law as existed in the 10th/11th century to explore the background of this person. I would appreciate any suggestions of contact information for scholars to contact.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Regards,

Palaniappan
