Islamic revivalism in the latter part of the twentieth century generated fresh interest in the application of Shari'a to areas that were previously governed by statutory legislation of non-Shari'a origin. Malaysia has consequently experienced a revival of interest in the Islamic law of transactions, Islamic banking and insurance. Steps have also been taken to enhance the status of the Syariah courts to enable them to operate as independent tribunals side by side with the civil courts. On the Islamic education front, Malaysia became home to the establishment of an Islamic university, and interest in the revival of Shari'a criminal law has been manifested in the Hudud Bill of Kelantan, 1993, which has, however, become controversial and still remains in abeyance. Terengganu has proposed the Kharaj to be levied on non-Muslims. These are some of the new areas where fresh interest is being shown in the Shari'a, in addition that is, to the Islamic family law which has always been the applied law of the land for the Muslims of Malaysia.
These developments have taken place in an inquisitive environment where questions were being asked as to how best could the Shari'a accommodate the realities of contemporary society. Political leaders, legislators and the ulema of Malaysia have been faced with the reality of Islam in Malaysia on the one hand and of balancing that concern within the context of a multi-religious and multi-racial society on the other.
This book addresses Shari'a-related issues that Malaysia has experienced in recent decades, especially since the 1970s when Islam became a more visible aspect of government policy. The quest for relevant answers to Shari'a law reform through ijtihad and other issues of concern to society is bound to be a continuing preoccupation of every representative government in this country. This book is a modest contribution to this continuing search for balanced approaches to Shari'a-related issues.
Dr. Mohammad Hashim Kamali has lived and worked in Malaysia since 1985 and is currently Professor of Islamic law and jurisprudence at the International Islamic University Malaysia.
