Electronic System Launch in Sharia Courts
The Electronic Means Usage System in Judicial Procedures at Sharia Courts No. (43) of 2026 has been published in the Official Gazette, and it will come into effect 90 days after publication. The system regulates electronic litigation, including the adoption of remote visual communication, electronic notifications, and the documentation of electronic documents and records with legal validity equivalent to paper-based ones. Its aim is to promote the use of modern technologies to ensure the effectiveness of judicial procedures across the Office of the Qadi, Sharia Courts, and Public Prosecution, while emphasizing that electronic data and rulings hold the same legal authority. The system also guarantees the confidentiality and security of remote visual communication and electronic notifications, incorporating methods such as text messages, emails, and electronic publication in newspapers, with certain exceptions such as detainees who are not legally represented. Additionally, the system focuses on tracking parties’ compliance with procedures and ensuring their lawful implementation. It allows parties to request in-person proceedings, with organized rules for verification and documentation to ensure data safety and confidentiality.
