在伊斯兰教中,妇女原则上可以超越私人领域。
In Islam, a woman is not, in principle, confined to the private domain.
她可以像男子一样,按照自己、家人或社会利益的需要进入公共和私人领域。
Like a man, she moves in both domains together, in accordance with the requirements of her own, her family's or society's interests.
此外,支配公共领域的价值观与私人领域的一样。
Furthermore, the values governing the public domain are those which govern the private.
因此,在这两个领域,法官、律师和各种权利的交互实现都有规定,男子和妇女在这两个领域都有共同的责任。
Thus justice, counsel and the reciprocal fulfilment of rights are ordained in both domains, and men and women together have responsibility in respect of both.
沙特王国的《施政基本法》来自《古兰经》和穆罕默德的圣行,坚持平等和非歧视是沙特社会的基本原则之一。
The Basic Law of Governance in the Kingdom, derived from the Holy Koran and Sunna of the Messenger, holds the principle of equality and non-discrimination to be among the fundamental imperatives of Saudi society.
《施政基本法》的所有相关条款对此都有规定,理由是在伊斯兰宗教中不存在任何歧视。
It is stipulated in all the relevant articles of the Basic Law of Governance for the reason that no suspicion of discrimination has any existence in the Islamic religion.
Examples are:
在政治领域:
In the political sphere:
根据《施政基本法》第6条,无论谁当国王,妇女和男子都要对其宣誓效忠。
• In accordance with article 6 of the Basic Law of Governance, women join with men in pledging allegiance to whoever is chosen king;
在经济领域:
In the economic sphere:
第28条规定国家应帮助向任何有能力的人提供就业机会,并制定保护员工和雇主的法律; 第59条规定对公务员制度应有一些专门的法律规定,包括“工资、定期生活津贴,补偿,附加福利和养老金”,就此而言,《公职法》不存在男女性别歧视。
• Article 59 stipulates that the law shall set forth the provisions for civil service, including “salaries, stipends, compensation, fringe benefits, and pensions”, pursuant to which the Civil Service Law does not discriminate between men and women;
在社会领域:
In the social sphere:
第10条规定国家应当努力加强家庭纽带,关心所有家庭成员,并提供有利于发展其才能和能力的条件; 第27条规定对于生病、残疾、年老和处于危急境况的公民及其家人,国家应当保证他们的权利,同时还应支持社会保障制度,并鼓励机构和个人加入慈善事业; 第30条规定国家应当开展公共教育,并致力于扫盲; 第31条规定国家应当对公众健康负责,并向每一个公民提供医疗保健服务。
• Article 27 stipulates that the State shall guarantee the right of the citizen and his family in emergencies, sickness, disability and old age, shall support the social security system and encourage institutions and individuals to participate in charitable work;
《施政基本法》的上述条款,以及最近颁布的下述法律,都说明国家为实现公共权利和职责方面的两性平等做出了重大努力,这符合在1 400多年前就让妇女充分享受到各种权利的伊斯兰教法。
The aforementioned articles of the Basic Law of Governance, as well as recently promulgated laws to be mentioned below, show the extent of the State's commitment to achieving gender equality in respect of public rights and duties, in a manner consistent with the Islamic Shariah which has provided women with full rights for more than 1,400 years.
第2条
Article 2
“缔约各国谴责对妇女一切形式的歧视,协议立即用一切适当办法,推行政策,消除对妇女的歧视。
“States Parties condemn discrimination against women in all its forms, agree to pursue by all appropriate means and without delay a policy of eliminating discrimination against women and, to this end, undertake:
男女平等的原则如尚未列入本国宪法或其他有关法律者,应将其列入,并以法律或其他适当方法,保证实现这项原则; 采取适当立法和其他措施,包括适当时采取制裁,禁止对妇女的一切歧视; 为妇女与男子平等的权利确立法律保护,通过各国的主管法庭及其他公共机构,保证切实保护妇女不受任何歧视; 不采取任何歧视妇女的行为或作法,并保证公共当局和公共机构的行动都不违背这项义务; 应采取一切适当措施,消除任何个人、组织或企业对妇女的歧视; 应采取一切适当措施,包括制定法律,以修改或废除构成对妇女歧视的现行法律、规章、习俗和惯例; 同意废止本国刑法内构成对妇女歧视的一切规定。”
(c) To establish legal protection of the rights of women on an equal basis with men and to ensure through competent national tribunals and other public institutions the effective protection of women against any act of discrimination;
本条确认国家必须采取立法和非立法措施禁止对妇女的歧视,而且必须在男女平等的基础上为妇女行使权利提供法律保护。
This article affirms the need for states to take legislative and non-legislative measures to prohibit discrimination against women and to establish legal protection of the rights of women on an equal basis with men.
在就《公约》第1条做出答复时,可参照《施政基本法》有关条款和沙特王国保证男女非歧视的法律。
In the response to article 1 of the Convention, reference was made to the provisions contained in the Basic Law of Governance and laws guaranteeing non-discrimination between men and women in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
应当提及的是,《施政基本法》规定的公民权利适用于所有人,不存在男女歧视。
It should be mentioned that the rights of citizens contained in the Basic Law of Governance apply to all, without discrimination between men and women.
因此,沙特王国当局在开展工作和行使权限时,坚持《施政基本法》相关条款和其他法律,如《公职法》和《劳动和员工法》所确认的男女平等原则。
Accordingly, State authorities are committed, in the performance of their work and exercise of their competence, to the principle of equality between men and women affirmed by the relevant articles of the Basic Law of Governance and other laws, such as the Civil Service Law and the Labour and Workers Law.
该原则对男女都适用,不存在任何歧视。
The principle applies to both genders without discrimination.
为了确保妇女实际享有这些权利,各种法规都为妇女行使权利提供了保障,使妇女能够在《施政基本法》或其他法律为妇女规定的任何权利受到侵犯时提起诉讼。
To ensure that women enjoy these rights in practice, the regulations guarantee women the right to resort to litigation in the event of any violation of the rights guaranteed to them by the Basic Law of Governance or other laws.
司法当局通过其各种机构为妇女提供可以获得补救的所有途径。
Through their various bodies, the judicial authorities provide all means of redress to women.
沙特王国的司法制度是公正合理的。
The Saudi judiciary is a just and balanced judiciary and, according to article 46 of the Basic Law of Governance, there is no authority over judges in their judicial function other than that of the Islamic Shariah.
