Law

The main aim of this research was to analyse the succession laws in the context of
secular laws of Uganda and Islamic laws with specific reference to examining
succession laws in Uganda, discussing Islamic succession laws and finally comparing
the two laws. This study was doctrinal legal research, the researcher used primary
sources such as text books, statutory laws, case laws etc. This study revealed that
customary succession laws are not suitable in today’s society, it is because it favours
men more than women when it comes to property inheritance thus encouraging
gender inequality and discrimination. In such cases, women and girl child are denied
inheritance, for instance, among the Buganda culture, the customary heir who is a
male gets the biggest portion of the deceased property. This study also revealed that
unlike other types of succession, Islamic law of succession provides a complete
literature on who is entitled to and what portion of the property should a person
receive. In such cases, women and girl child are provided forunder the Islamic law of
inheritance. This study recommends that Islamic succession laws should be adopted in
matters of inheritance in Uganda. It’s because once the Quran is followed, its
enforceability becomes easier.

The prime objectives of this study are to examine the rule of law and attitudes of Somalis towards its application, as well as the challenges related to its adoption. The study gathered data via a self-administered internet, Somalia National Development Plan 2020 to 2024 and the Somali federal provisional constitution. According to the findings, there is a poor application of rule of law, considering unawareness of the Somali leaders not respect the upholding of rule of law, and political corruption are the most challenging factors to the adoption of rule of law in Somalia. The independence judicial model of the country still not established and the judiciary service commission which has not been existent since 2014. Other challenges relate to the provisional Somali constitution, such as power distribution, separation of the three organs of the government. The paper concludes with a series of recommendations to overcome these challenges. The study seeks to contribute new ideas to the current discussion on rule of law in Somalia. The findings of this study will inform Somali policymakers, the Somali populace, the international community, and academia concerning the performance and the practical challenges of Somalia's of the good governances.

Introduction  This course is the window to see the law and it is the beginning of law students’ transformation into lawyers, judges and or legal relations. It teaches the students to engage with legal texts, to think critically about the law, and most importantly, to think, analyze and reason like a lawyer. The course contains seven Units/Chapters and will familiarize students with theoretical debates on the nature of law and will acquaint them with their real world consequences.  It will equip students to gain a basic understanding of the legal system, theories of the past Schools, the sources of Somali legal systems, the nature of Justice and legal rights/moral rights and duties, the theories of punishment. We will in hand with also the theories of defenses, the technique of legal and logical reasoning and analysis, and then we will conclude with how a curious student will summarize and rule a real case. Think like a lawyer. The course focuses on orientation of students to legal studies from the point of view of basic concepts of law and legal systems. Law as an independent discipline has its own materials and methods. Though related to and reflective of social processes, its development is unique in several respects. The character and content of legal knowledge are explained to the students in a systematic manner. Familiarity with the sources of law and with legal materials and competence to find the law by the use of the law library are major concerns of this course. This course is in English, But Insha-Allah we are about to yield in Somali translated jurisprudence.
