The Islamic Commission of Spain ( Spanish : Comisión Islámica de España , abbreviation CIE) is the legal representative of Muslims and Islamic associations in relation to Spanish society and the government. Its tasks are to represent, negotiate, sign and implement the agreements between the state and Islam, laid down in Law 26/1992. The Islamic Commission of Spain meets regularly with government representatives in the Joint Joint Commission and in addition to informal discussions with the Presiding Minister on legislative initiatives and with the Religious Affairs Administration in the Ministry of Justice. It is based in Madrid .

Historical summary

In 1967 Spain promulgated the first law that officially allowed Muslims to organize. After a centuries-long exclusion of Muslims from Spanish society, the first Muslim association with local significance was constituted in Melilla in 1968 and, in 1971, on a national level and based in Madrid, the “Asociación Musulmana en España” (AME). According to the current constitution, the constitutional law on religious freedom was put into effect and so the "Union of Islamic Communities of Spain" (Spanish: Unión de Comunidades Islámicas de España , abbreviation UCIDE) was constituted, as was the "Spanish Federation of Religious Islamic Corporations" ( Spanish: Federación Española de Entidades Religiosas Islámicas , abbr. FEERI), which together form the Islamic Commission of Spain (CIE), which in turn is part of the “Muslim Council for Cooperation in Europe” ( French : Conseil musulman de coopération en Europe , CMCE ) is involved.
