dc.description.abstractThe relevance, applicability, and acceptability of Alternative Dispute Resolution globally as a veritable dispute resolution mechanism is valid than mere assumption. The acceptance may not be divorced from congruent and consensual nature of its practice and procedure. The same could be said of Islamic ADR practices but more importantly, Islamic ADR practices are specifically based on Qur'ān and Sunah of Prophet Muhammad (s. a. w.). Although there are myriad of these processes that encompass among others Sulh, Tahkim, Sulh and Tahkim, Muhtasib, Fatwā of Mufti meaning: Mediation, Arbitration, Med-Arb, Ombudsman and Expert Determination of a Jurist-Consult respectively. While some of the Islamic ADR processes are either at the rudimentary stage or practiced haphazardly, it is evident that processes like Muhtasib(Ombudsman) and Fatwā of Mufti (Expert Determination) are unsystematically practiced in Nigeria. Thus, an attempt is made to show the problem with these two processes in Nigeria and the appreciable progress made in Malaysia with respect to Fatwa of Mujii(Expert Determination). As the way forward, solution is proffered based on the structured approach in this jurisdiction as a way to entrench the application of Islamic ADR mechanism in Nigeria
