Description
The Bar Council Syariah Law Committee is organising a forum entitled “Administration of Islamic Law in Malaysia and Its Challenges”. The forum is timely, since the civil-Syariah jurisdictional conflict remains an unsettled issue, as reflected in recent cases.
Objectives:
- To raise awareness regarding the existence and management of hybrid cases, ie those that involve an overlap between civil and Syariah jurisdictions; and
- To discuss how to move such hybrid cases forward while upholding the Federal Constitution.
