This study seeks to investigate policies, measures and efforts on religious affairs governance in the UAE, through enacting laws and establishing local religious institutions by uncovering the necessity of the procedures that are in place, the goals of religious governance, how religious affairs are regulated, and the challenges that the government faces in the process. The main objective of this thesis is to provide one possible adoption model for religious regulation. Further, since there are few studies on the topic of religious governance in general, and in the UAE particularly, the researchers synthesized and integrated existing knowledge from diverse sources to provide a comprehensive overview of the topic and highlighted the patterns and trends.
