Dr. Sheikh Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, ruler of Sharjah, made the decision to free 439 inmates from Sharjah's Punitive and Correctional Institution for Eid Al Adha. This release was based on evidence of the prisoners' good behavior and their eligibility for pardons[2][3]. This tradition of granting pardons during key religious holidays like Eid Al Adha and Ramadan serves to strengthen family bonds and open avenues for rehabilitation[2][3].
Joining the movement, other UAE rulers also pardoned prisoners for Eid Al Adha. UAE's President, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, authorized the release of 963 prisoners, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum cleared 985 detainees from Dubai[1][3]. In total, over 3,900 prisoners had their liberty restored across the UAE for Eid Al Adha[4].
