| Summary: | Enforcement of Islamic criminal law is always at the center stage. Most of the time, magnetizes media publicity. At times, it becomes controversial. Thus, many depressing statements have been hurled against Islamic criminal law and its enforcement. Some question the status of Islamic criminal law in the Malaysian legal framework.

This book attempts to discuss these issues objectively by looking at the relevant legal provisions, including the Federal Constitution. |
