you seem not to be informed that the Kadhi's courts in the proposed constitution is worse than what we currently have.... [/quote]

Can you please explain in english and without quoting a bible verse what you mean?

I heard that on k24 today...no one explained.

@ Nancy...http://www.wazua.co.ke/forum.aspx?g=posts&t=6270&p=2#post71871.
The clause about "state and religion" has for the first time been removed from a proposed constitution.
Your tax will be paying for the running of the kadhi's courts even if hautahukumiwa huko...it is open for them to demand state funding (including trips to Mecca)

Here is the difference.

Current

66. Kadhis' Courts.
1. There shall be a Chief Kadhi and such number, not being less than three, of other Kadhis as may be pro- scribed by or under an Act of Parliament.
2. A person shall not be qualified to be appointed to hold or act in the office of Kadhi unless-
a. he professes the Muslim religion; and
b. he possesses such knowledge of the Muslim law applicable to any sect or sects of Muslims as qualifies him, in the opinion of the Judicial Service Commission, to hold a Kadhi's court.
3. Without prejudice to section 65 (1), there shall be such subordinate courts held by Kadhis as Parliament may establish and each Kadhi's court shall, subject to this Con stitution, have such jurisdiction and powers as may be conferred on it by any law.

The Chief Kadhi and the other Kadhis, or the Chief Kadhi and such of the other Kadhis (not being less than three in number) as may be prescribed by or under an Act of Parliament, shall each be empowered to hold a Kadhi's court having jurisdiction within the former Protectorate or within such part of the former Protectorate as may be so prescribed: Provided that no part of the former Protectorate shall be outside the jurisdiction of some Kadhi's court.

I think you have just shown why the muslims were scared. You guys are amazing.

So, you will be ok if all muslims were relegated to the protectorate area.

why then not go majimbo all the way?

lets have the kadhis court in the protectorate area and leave the rest of the country to the "holy" christians.

aiii yawa!

Please guys, vote No and still have the Kadhis court. Vote Yes and still have a Kadhis court.

In short, you are speaking in tongues that I can't understand.

People, define FORMER PROTECTORATE? FORMER PROTECTORATE was not the coast region.... to my understanding, KENYA was the PROTECTORATE........... and even if it was the coast region, does it mean that muslims do not have the right to own and reside in any other part of the country except the coastal strip?

I am not even sure of what we are arguing about here.... so, what is the actual danger of having kadhi courts in the constitution? if we feel that another religion should not be treated "uniquely" then why cant the Christians come up with their courts and i will be more than glad to vote for them to be entrenched in the constitution? Its like stopping a goat from eating "miriyo ndikahuhite" and you are not going to eat them!!!!
