Constitutional Reforms during the Reign of Sultan Qaboos
View through CrossRef
The Omani Renaissance transformed more than the visible infrastructure of the Sultanate. It also had a deep impact on the law and on legal structures within the country. This is most apparent in what is called the Omani Constitutional Renaissance, which started in 1996, the middle of Sultan Qaboos’ reign. The Omani Constitution that developed is a combination and harmonization of Islamic Sharia as well as modern constitutionalism, based on various models and exisiting constitutions. Sharia (both Ibadi and non-Ibadi) and modern law shaped and inspired the making of the Oman’s Constitution during the reign of Sultan Qaboos.
