dc.description This paper provides a brief analysis of some of the salient features of the Kadhis’ Courts in Zanzibar. The analysis has been discussed under purposefully selected sub-themes which are considered to reflect some emerging trends in the operation of this judicial system in Zanzibar. One of the sub-themes is premised along the gender paradigm (with a focus on selected cases on some aspects of divorce). Another is focused on the perceptions or influence of common law principles and the international legal regime on the application of Islamic law. The other sub-theme focuses on the limitations placed on the Court of Appeal with regard to cases emanating from the Kadhis’ Courts and its reaction to this set up.
