metadata.value: This paper examines the core sources governing judicial ethics in the Cooperation Council
  for the Arab States of the Gulf (GCC), primarily in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), taking
  into account mixed nature of its legal system, comparing to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
  (KSA) with its more religious approach and the State of Qatar with a manifested democratic
  one. On grounds of the analysis and systematization of the regulatory framework, a study
  was conducted in accordance with the current state of affairs regarding qādī qualifications in
  Arab countries and summarized in a table. The ideological differences in Islam are also taken
  into account through the study of the opinions of authoritative mujtahids and the works of
  foreign scholars. The authors have analyzed Islamic doctrine and compared it with the current
  Emirati, Saudi and Qatari legislation regarding the requirements for judge (qādī). The United
  Arab Emirates federal laws and decrees more precisely elaborate teachings and modify specific
  evaluative concepts. They also provide more lenient rules, despite the predominance of Mālikī
  and Hanafī madhabs. The authors also note the more detailed regulation of the disciplinary
  and criminal responsibility of judges and slight changes in relation to the observations
  indicated in the Reports of the Special Rapporteur on the Independence of Judges and Lawyers
  No. A/HRC/29/26 2015 in UAE and Qatar. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Qatar has more
  similar, but rigid regulation due to one madhab domination (Hanbali). The issue calls for the revision of a number of laws that are examined in detail, since the implementation of them
  causes inequality that deems to be fought against.
