The Malaysian Syariah Court

The Malaysian Syariah Court is a judicial system that handles legal matters related to Islamic law for Muslim residents. It addresses issues such as marriage, divorce, inheritance, and religious misconduct, applying Islamic principles. While it operates alongside the civil courts, its jurisdiction is limited to Muslims and specific areas of personal and family law. The court aims to provide a legal framework consistent with Islamic teachings, ensuring that religious obligations are respected within the Malaysian legal context.
