This volume of Annotated Legal Documents on Islam in Europe covers Hungary and consists
of an annotated collection of legal documents affecting the status of Islam and Muslims.
The legal texts are published in the original Hungarian language while the annotations
and supporting material are in English. By legal documents are meant the texts of
legislation, including relevant secondary legislation, as well as significant court
decisions. Each legal text is preceded by an introduction describing the historical,
political and legal circumstances of its adoption, plus a short paragraph summarising
its content. The focus of the collection is on the religious dimensions of being Muslim
in Europe, i.e. on individuals' access to practise their religious obligations and
on the ability to organise and manifest their religious life.
