Islamic Commission of Spain (Spanish:
Comisión Islámica de
España) is the legitimate representative organ of Islam and Muslims before the
citizenship and the Administration for the representation,
negotiation, signature and follow-up on the Islam - State
agreements adopted in Law 26/1992. The Islamic Commission of Spain
meets periodically with representatives of the Administration in
the Mixed Paritary Commission; in addition to the conjunctural
communications with the Ministry of the Presidency on legislative
initiatives, and with the Main Directorate of Religious Affairs of
the Ministry of Justice.
Historical
summary
In 1967 the first law allowing the Muslims to organize
themselves, after a parenthesis of centuries, was promulgated in Spain, leading to the establishment
in 1968 of the first local Muslim Association in Spain in Melilla, and in 1971, the first
national association, the Association of Muslims in Spain (AME),
which has its headquarters in Madrid. Under the Spanish
Constitution the Statutory Law of Religious Freedom is promulgated,
now in force, and the Union of Islamic Communities in Spain was
constituted (UCIDE), as well as the Spanish Federation of Islamic
Religious Entities (FEERI), which together constitute the Islamic
Commission of Spain (CIE), which is a member of the Muslim Council
of Cooperation in Europe (MCCE)[1]in
Brussels, which is a consultative body to the European
Union.
Representatives
The direction of CIE is made up by the presidents of these two
federations, UCIDE and FEERI:
- Vice-president (by the FEERI): Mr Mohamed-Amin Herrero, as well
as rector of the Islamic Association Al-Andalus of Malaga and its
Province.
- President (by the UCIDE): Sir Riaj Tatary, commander of the
Meritorious Civil Service Order, and vice-president of the
