Qadi (also known as Qazi and Kadi) (Arabic: قاضى) is a judge ruling in accordance with the sharia, Islamic religious law. Because Islam makes no distinction between religious and secular domains, qadis traditionally have jurisdiction over all legal matters involving Muslims. The judgment of a qadi must be based on ijma, the prevailing consensus of the ulema, Islamic scholars. Charges of favoritism and corruption against qadis are as ancient in Islam as anti-clericalism is in the West

qazi mean the one who arrange the marriage like for eg:Muslim judge who renders decisions according to the Shari'ah, the canon law of Islam. The qadi hears only religious cases, such as those involving inheritance, pious bequests, marriage, and divorce, though theoretically his jurisdiction extends to civil and criminal matters. The second caliph, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, was the first to appoint a qadi to eliminate the necessity of his personally judging every dispute that arose in the community.
