The study aims to illustrate the criminal protection of public employees in the United Arab Emirates law compared with Islamic law in order to address the ambiguities related to the topic. Moreover, there is a large gap between the traditional United Arab Emirates Law and protection of public employees in Islamic law. This study highlights the importance of Islamic law as one of the essential sources of the law in United Arab Emirates. This study follows the doctrinal approach to identify and compare between the criminal protection provisions in both laws. The methodology allows understanding the criminal protection during the Prophet’s (PBUH) era and that of current companies. The result of this study shows that the Islamic law, established by the Almighty, is the main source of the traditional law in the United Arab Emirates. In addition, the criminal protection relays power of the importance of public employees to the United Arab Emirates institutions. The results of this study show that the criminal protection allows employees wide authority in their field exposing them to different challenges.
