The Constitution is based on the Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and Somalia follows Islamic Sharia and its principles. Somalia is a Muslim country and is part of the international community, especially the Arab and African communities. The country uses a federal system, where powers are shared between different levels of government. The Constitution protects human rights, requires everyone to follow the law, and allows international laws only when they do not conflict with Islamic Sharia or the Constitution. It also provides for an inclusive government, separates government powers, and ensures that the courts are independent. Government institutions must be accountable, transparent, effective, and serve the interests of the people. Women must have meaningful participation in government at the federal, state, and local levels, including in elected and appointed positions. All government authorities must use their powers according to the Constitution and the laws of Somalia. The land, sea, airspace, rivers, islands, and natural resources belong collectively to the Somali people. The Federal Government is responsible for managing and protecting these national assets.
