40,000 sq. meters of land
 
retrieved from encroachers


Workers from the Al-Umrah branch municipality in Makkah remove illegal
constructions on encroached land in Shumaisy area on Monday

1 January 2014

The Makkah Municipality has taken back 40,000 sq. meters of land from encroachers who had built houses and set up farms on the government-owned property.

The municipality’s encroachment committee and the police removed the buildings from the land.

Hassan bin Saeed Khanqar, head of Al-Umrah municipality, said the municipality launched a campaign this week in several locations in Al-Shumaisi and removed various illegal buildings.

He said some citizens took over government land without any proof of ownership, and built yards and farms over 40,000 square meters.

The municipality has several field teams in place monitoring the situation.

Ahmad Oon Al-Barakati, the municipality’s secretary general, said the surveillance department, under the leadership of its president Miteb Al-Harithi, removed nine farms and 65 buildings in Al-Shumaisi. The mayor called on citizens to stop taking over government land.

Madinah Capital of Islamic Culture 2013

Conference in Madinah focuses
 
on women rights


MAKING A POINT: Taibah University President Adnan Mazrou speaks at the conference in Madinah on Tuesday.
1 January 2014

Taibah University President Adnan Mazrou in a conference organized as part of the celebration of Madinah being declared as the cultural capital of Islam for the year 2013, said that women’s rights in Islam are bestowed on mankind by Allah the Almighty.

“Islam guarantees women their rights and the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah implements those rights endowing women with pride and honor,” Mazrou said while addressing the opening of the two-day conference on Tuesday.

In her speech Iman Azzam, vice-president of the College of Law, said that society needed to be reminded of the rights Islam has granted to women while outlining the goals and major topics to be discussed in the conference.

Rawiah bint Ahmed Al-Zehar was the winner of the Madinah Prize for research in the field of women’s rights in Islam and was honored in the inaugural session.

She had also won the Prince Naif Prize for her writings in the field of the Sunnah and contemporary Islamic studies earlier.

In his keynote speech Sheikh Saleh Al-Maghamasi pointed out that Islam gave women an important position in society as it advised men to be kind to women.

He pointed out at the outset of the meeting that no topics outside women’s material rights would be discussed such as driving or the veil adding that one needs to learn the jurisprudence of Islamic piety to understand such issues.

The Sheikh lamented that in a number of countries women have been deprived of their feminine rights and have to carry the social responsibilities of their men-folk too.

Mansour Al-Nazha chaired the first session of the forum entitled “Women’s rights in Islam — Concepts and Controls”.

In a paper presented in the first session, Khaled Al-Durais, professor of Islamic studies at the College of Education, King Saud University pointed out that the theoretical discussions about the rights of women had not brought about any improvement in the miserable lives of women in most Muslim countries and that the discussions “will never address the injustice that Muslim women have been suffering over the centuries.

“It is because women’s rights are suppressed by some deep-rooted traditions and customs that override the Shariah laws of justice, mercy and virtue,” he said.

In his paper he recommended that priority should be given to criminalize violations of women’s rights.

Nawal bint Abdul Aziz Al-Eid, associate professor of Sunnah at Noura University, stressed the need to fully implement Islamic laws on women’s rights and rescue them from the pressures of westernization and intimidations of the conservatives. The Dean of the College of Arts and Humanities Abdullah Damfo chaired the second session.

وأشار قطان إلى وجود 700 عقار لم يتقدم أحد حتى الآن لإثبات ملكيتها، ووجود 900 عقار لا تزال عليها مشكلات، لافتًا إلى أن أموال تعويضات الدور التي لم يحضر أصحابها تبقى في أملاك الدولة محفوظة.

وكشف المشرف على لجنة تطوير الساحات الشمالية المحيطة بالحرم المكي الشريف قطان عن وجود توجيه مستقبلي بإزالة فندق دار التوحيد ومبنى شركة مكة وبرجين من وقف الملك عبدالعزيز، وهي عقارات ملاصقة للحرم المكي الشريف من الجهة الغربية والجنوبية، بعد اكتمال المشروعات التطويرية الخاصة بالإسكان كجبل عمر، مشيرًا إلى أن توسعة الجهة الجنوبية وصلت حتى 150 مترًا عن الطريق الدائري الثاني.

وقال المهندس قطان خلال استضافته في اثنينية الدكتور أحمد بن نافع المورعي التي أقيمت مساء أمس الأول بداره بحي العوالي: إن إجمالي العقارات التي تم نزعها لصالح توسعات الحرم المكي الشريف بلغت 5800 عقار بتكلفة 75 مليار ريال، وتم الانتهاء من مراحل صرف التعويضات للمرحلتين الأولى والثانية من التوسعة، مشيرًا إلى وجود 700 عقار لم يتقدم أحد حتى الآن لإثبات ملكيتها ووجود 900 عقار لا تزال عليها مشكلات لافتًا إلى أن أموال تعويضات الدور التي لم يحضر أصحابها تبقى في أملاك الدولة محفوظة.

ولفت إلى أن صرف التعويضات يتم فقط لأصحاب الصكوك الشرعية ومن لم يكن لديه صك تتم إحالته إلى المحكمة لاستخراج صك أنقاض فقط ويعوض عنها وليس عن المساحة.

وأبان قطان أن الإزالات التي حدثت في المنطقة المركزية لم تخرج الأهالي من مساكنهم نظرًا لأن هذه المساكن مخصصة لإسكان الحجاج والمعتمرين، لافتا إلى أن غالبية الأحياء التي شملتها أعمال الإزالة لم تكن بتلك الكثافة الكبيرة من السكان.
