Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Knowledge Pack — UAE Civil Personal Status (Federal Decree-Law 41/2022)

## Scope and Innovation

**Federal Decree-Law 41 of 2022** (the "Civil Personal Status Law") is the **first comprehensive civil personal-status framework in the Gulf region** for non-Muslims. It came into force in February 2023 and applies to:

- **Non-Muslim residents** of the UAE who elect to use the civil framework.
- **Both parties** must be non-Muslim for the civil regime to apply in its default form.
- **Optional**: parties may, in limited circumstances, still choose to have their matter heard under Sharia courts (e.g., if one or both parties are Muslim or wish to apply Islamic rules).

Muslims in the UAE continue to be governed by **Federal Personal Status Law 28/2005** (Sharia-based).

## Dual-Track Framework

| Regime | Applicable Persons | Key Features |
|---|---|---|
| Civil Personal Status (DL 41/2022) | Non-Muslim UAE residents | No-fault divorce, joint custody default, equal property division, testamentary freedom |
| Islamic Personal Status (FL 28/2005) | Muslim UAE residents | Sharia rules: mahr, talaq/khula, fara'id inheritance, Islamic custody rules |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thomasmoreai/legal-skills-open/kb-family-law-uae-civil-personal-status-sboghossian@sha256:72da1a7ac4a6bbd7

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
