Shari'ar Alƙalanci (Al-Qadaa') ita ce yanke hukunci da ke zama wajibi a kiyaye. Tana warware sabani tsakanin mutane, tana hana abin da ke cutar da haƙƙoƙin al'umma, ko kuma tana kawar da rikice-rikicen da ke tasowa tsakanin mutane da mambobin tsarin mulki – duka shugabanni da ma'aikatan gwamnati – tun daga Shugaban Ƙasa zuwa ƙasa.

The Judiciary is the pronouncement of the rule that becomes binding. It settles the disputes between the people and prevents that which harms the community’s rights, or it eliminates the disputes arising between people and members of the ruling system – both rulers and civil servants – from the Head of State downwards.

Asalin shari'ar alƙali da halaccinsa shi ne Littafi da Sunna. Dangane da Littafi, maganar Allah (SWT).

The origin of the judiciary and its legitimacy is the Book and the Sunnah. As for the Book, the words of Allah (swt).

“Kuma ka yi hukunci a tsakaninsu da abin da Allah Ya saukar.” (TMQ 5:45), da kuma maganarsa (SWT).

“And judge, [O Muhammad], between them by what Allah has revealed.” (TMQ 5:45), and His (swt) words.
