This study seeks to analyse the role of Sharia councils in Britain in the practice of family mediation and marital reconciliation, through an approach that combines a sociological perspective with a Sharia framework. The study is based on the premise that marital disputes and divorce are complex social phenomena shaped by an interplay of religious, familial, cultural and legal factors. It focuses on how Sharia councils employ mediation and reconciliation mechanisms to address marital disputes, and on reconciling Sharia rulings with the specific social realities of the British Muslim community. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, drawing on the literature and relevant studies concerning the experiences of Sharia councils and family mediation. The study concludes that family mediation within Sharia councils serves a religious and social function in resolving marital disputes and promoting reconciliation and family stability, whilst emphasising the importance of developing its practices in a manner that takes into account the social, legal and cultural context of the Muslim community in Britain.
