Kuwaiti Democracy in Action

They were created by a Kuwaiti psychologist called Naif Al Mutawa.

With this election, Kuwaiti women participated in choosing the parliament for the first time. Though women have long been active in Kuwaiti public life, they were enfranchised only last year, after a long and difficult campaign, by a parliamentary vote, and accounted for just 28 of the 249 candidates.

Whatever the immediate outcome, the Kuwaiti government is facing a new political horizon. Women are now the majority of voters, and young people have taken up the reform banner.

In response, the government removed the redistricting issue from parliament to the constitutional court an attempt, reformers argued, to hold back change. When three members of parliament sought to question the Prime Minister their right, under the Kuwaiti constitution the parliament was dissolved and elections called.

With independence in 1961, these rules were codified in a constitution. Compared to other Gulf monarchies, the Kuwaiti royal family has limited powers, though constitutional rules have frequently been ignored charges of vote rigging marred the 1967 election, and parliamentary dissolution has dotted the country s history.

There are some among the people of the Book who return a whole treasure entrusted to them yet some there are who do not give back a dinar until you demand and insist, because they say It is not a sin for us to (usurp) the rights of the Arabs. Yet they lie against God, and they know it.

Among the People of the Book is he who if you entrust him with a quintal will repay it to you, and among them is he who, if you entrust him with a dinar will not repay it to you unless you stand persistently over him. That is because they say, We have no obligation to the non Jews. But they attribute lies to Allah, and they know it .

Among the People of the Book there are some, who, if you trust him with a Qintar (98, 841. 6 lbs.), will return it to you, and there are others, who, if you trust him with a dinar will not hand it back unless you stand over him, for they say 'As for the common people, they have no recourse to us' They say lies against Allah while they know.

Among the people of the Book there are some who, if you entrust them with a heap of gold, will return it to you. But there are others of them who, if you entrust them with a single dinar, will not return it to you, unless you keep demanding it from them. That is because they say, We are under no obligation towards the gentiles. They deliberately tell lies about God.

And of the people of the Book is he whom if thou trustest with a talent, he will restore it unto thee, and among them is he whom if thou trustest with a dinar, he will not restore it unto thee except thou art ever standing over him that is because they say there is in the matter of the illiterates no call on us. And they forge a lie against Allah while they know.

And among the followers of the Book there are some such that if you entrust one (of them) with a heap of wealth, he shall pay it back to you and among them there are some such that if you entrust one (of them) with a dinar he shall not pay it back to you except so long as you remain firm in demanding it this is because they say There is not upon us in the matter of the unlearned people any way (to reproach) and they tell a lie against Allah while they know.
