This dissertation considers whether Dubai Municipality General Conditions of Contract are compatible with Islamic law or not? It focuses only on two main headings i.e. the contingent events and the delay damages. It also, compares the DM conditions with Dubai Government Departments Contracts law and UAE law. Concerning the two topics, the dissertation concludes that the conditions are not in strict compliance with Islamic law and therefore, adjustments are required in order to seek compatibility. Surprisingly, it also shows that the contingent events article of UAE law i.e. article 249 of the Civil Code is not as well in compliance with Islamic rules and principles.
