Date Added : 02-11-2015

Resolution No.(144)(9/2010) by the Board of Iftaa`, Research and Islamic Studies:

"The Jordanian Personal Status Draft Law/2010"

Date: 16/6/1431 AH, corresponding to 30/5/2010 AD.

 

During its sixth session held on the above date, the Board reviewed the Jordanian Personal Status Draft Law.

After thorough studying and deliberating, it decided what follows:

The above draft law is derived from the provisions of Islamic Sharia with its four Madhabs (Schools of thought), and achieves its goals related to the family rules through protecting the rights of women, family, and children, in general; therefore, the Board recommends going on with its constitutional procedures until it is ratified.

Moreover, the Board appreciates the sincere efforts of the Supreme Judge, the Sharia Judiciary Commission and all the people that have participated in drafting this law. We pray that Allah, The Almighty, favors Islam and Muslims with success and progress. All success is due to Allah.
