The Muslim Arbitration Tribunal is a form of alternative dispute resolution which operates under the Arbitration Act 1996 which is available in the United Kingdom. It is one of two services (Islamic Sharia Council is the other) for Muslims who wish to resolve disputes without recourse to the courts system. According to Machteld Zee, the MAT differs from other Sharia councils in that their ‘core business’ is arbitrating commercial disputes under the Arbitration Act 1996. The tribunals were set up by lawyer Faiz-ul-Aqtab Siddiqi and operate in London, Bradford, Manchester, Birmingham and Nuneaton. Two more are planned for Glasgow and Edinburgh. Rulings can be enforced in both the County Courts and the High Court.〔 The media have described a system of Islamic Sharia courts which have the power to rule in civil cases.〔 As of 2008, the courts had dealt with around 100 cases dealing with issues such as inheritance and nuisance neighbours.〔 ==Legality and powers== The MAT operates under Section 1 of the Arbitration Act which states that: “the parties should be free to agree how their disputes are resolved, subject only to such safeguards as are necessary in the public interest”. As such it operates within the framework of English law and does not constitute a separate Islamic legal system. Under the Act they are deemed to be "arbitration tribunals".〔 The Muslim Arbitration Tribunal has no powers to grant a divorce which is valid in English and Welsh law.〔〔''"Extra-judicial divorces, which have been granted since 1 January 1974 in this country, are not valid."'' 〕 A ''talaq'' can be granted to recognise divorce.〔〔 A sharia marriage has no bearing on personal status under UK law.〔''"To get married in an Anglican church, contact your local church () For all other marriages or civil partnerships you must give notice at your local register office."'' 〕 The Muslim Arbitration Tribunal has no jurisdiction on criminal matters but can attempt reconciliation between spouses.
