Abstract
Este artículo pretende analizar tanto el nombramiento como el cese de los cadíes desde el punto de vista de sus cualificaciones académicas. Se centra en la práctica del cadiazgo en Egipto durante el período ‛abbāsí (132-254/750-868). Las fuentes principales son los Ajbār al-quḍāt de Wakī' y el Kitāb wulāt Miṣr de al-Kindī. Ambas obras contienen material de una gran originalidad y son bastante completas, ofreciendo detallada información sobre temas relativos tanto al nombramiento como al cese de los jueces durante los primeros siglos de la historia islámica de Egipto. Se estudia la biografía de cada juez para averiguar cuáles fueron las razones que determinaron su nombramiento y su cese. Los resultados obtenidos son de interés para comprender las prácticas judiciales y su relación con las aptitudes profesionales que se consideraban necesarias en aquella época.

It is necessary to embark on the main theme of the paper which is the qualifications necessary for a person to be appointed to be a judge of the qàdi Court with special reference to the Abbasid judges of Egypt
Summary
As any student of Islamic law would be aware that the Shan'a demands the enforcement of justice, the establishment of the Islamic judicial institution would be essential without which justice and fairplay can never be upheld. Local govemors, as the case may be, consulted the local scholar instead of qàdi alqudàt for nominations of candidates and appointment of judges At this stage, a preliminary conclusion may be made that the notion of centralised administration of justice by introducing the institution ofqàé, al-qudàt was not really in practice. No matter what the reason that led the Caliph or the local governor to appoint judges from non-leading jurists or non-professors of law, it is well estabHshed in the literature of judgeship that the judges were not always necessarily and sufficiently expert in law.^^ As in the case of judges in Egypt, alKindî reported that Ghawth b. Was able to produce his own writings to rebut the allegations of al-Shàfi'ï in Mukhtasar al-Muzani against Abu Hanîfa.^^
