ANOTHER HISTORICAL GROUNDBREAKING PROJECT NAZLIN HAS FOUNDED IS THE ‘OASIS OF HOPE’, GENDER CRISIS CENTERS THAT PROVIDE FREE LEGAL AID, LITIGATION, MEDIATION, ADVOCACY AND REFERRALS.

The project articulates Islamic, legal and gender rights and redress to domestic, sexual and all other forms of violence to women and children including counseling and mediation services to victims and all members of families facing turbulence in their relationships. The centers were based in Nairobi for Nairobi province and in Mombasa for Coast province. The ‘Oasis of Hope’ advised and represented or linked to advocates who may provide pro-bono services for referred cases from Oasis of hope for women at the law courts on family matters and personal law, including addressing all forms of violence and abuse to women and children. The centers also provide counseling and mediation to ALL persons, men and women, boys and girls, regardless of age, gender, religion or social status – with a vision to reduce turbulence in family relations.  The ‘Oasis of hope’ was to be supported in Nairobi and Mombasa by Her majesty the Queen’s Government through the British Government’s Global Opportunities fund (GOF) which contract has been signed but awaiting disbursement of funds as a result of delay from the British High Commission in Nairobi. The project has a publications component which includes Islamic posters and publication of “The Islamic Shari’ah and the rights of women, VOL 1: Marriage and Divorce – an Interpretation and application of the Shari’ah law worldwide.” This book has been written as a result of the resolutions made by Islamic Scholars and all the Kadhi’s in Kenya and is demand driven for the purpose of empowering the Kadhi’s and the Kadhi’s Courts in Kenya during training and consultative forums held by the NMCK in 2003. All the Kadhis in this forum also appreciated, hailed the project as a role model and critical partner to the judiciary to support the Kadhis courts and propagated for the Judiciary to attach to every Kadhis court in Kenya which was done at Nazlin’s initiated 1st Muslim scholars and Kadhis consultations held at the senate hotel in February 2004, funded by the Canadian CIDA/GESP programme.
