Résumé:After discussing the question of differences between Islam in the Middle East and Islam elsewhere, the author outlines the historical development of Islam and law in Minangkabau. She examines how the Minangkabau people can retain so many elements of a long-lived matrilineal system in face of the patrilineal nature both of Islamic law and of the custom of most Muslim peoples.
