Akta dan enakmen undang-undang keluarga Islam negeri-negeri mengiktiraf perkahwinan antara lelaki Islam dan perempuan kitabiyah. Kitabiyah dan ahl al-Kitab digunakan secara bergantian dan telah dihuraikan sebagai seorang perempuan yang beriman kepada agama samawi dan memiliki Kitab suci, iaitu, Yahudi dan Kristian. Dalam kes Johan bin Abdul Walked Shaik v Runa Bangoe Olsen, mahkamah syariah mendapati bahawa perkahwinan yang dilangsungkan di Australia antara seorang lelaki Islam dan seorang perempuan Kristian adalah sah mengikut hukum syarak. Kes ini menggambarkan tafsiran istilah kitabiyah yang diterima pakai oleh mahkamah syariah di Malaysia untuk perkahwinan yang didaftarkan di bawah enakmen undang-undang keluarga Islam di Malaysia. Selanjutnya, isu kitabiyah terpakai dalam situasi di mana suami memeluk agama Islam dan isteri masih seorang Yahudi atau Kristian. Oleh itu, makalah ini akan mengkaji isu kitabiyah dalam perkahwinan, penukaran agama suami yang bukan Islam kepada Islam dan implikasinya terhadap hak di bawah undang-undang keluarga atau pewarisan. Makalah ini juga akan mengkaji pendekatan dan cabaran praktikal terutamanya mengenai konsep perkahwinan antara agama. Kajian ini menggunakan analisis doktrin dengan meneliti sumber primer dan sekunder termasuk peruntukan undang-undang sama ada enakmen undang-undang keluarga Islam negeri, pendapat para fuqaha, kes-kes yang telah diputuskan dan lain-lain literatur undang-undang dan sebaliknya dari perspektif Islam dan Malaysia. Adalah dicadangkan bahawa tafsiran kitabiyah yang intensif diperlukan di Malaysia untuk memastikan pelaksanaannya tidak terlalu longgar dan ke arah mengiktiraf perkahwinan antara agama. Pada masa yang sama, tidak menutup ruang kepada para hakim berijtihad untuk memutuskan perkara yang berkaitan dengannya.
Law students at the university are taught substantive and procedural law subjects to prepare them for law practice. Thus, during physical class, the students' assessments are dominated by applications, legal opinions, and essay writings. Online assessments during online class (ODL) require more than just copying and pasting cases or lecture notes. In line with the motivation theory, students shall indulge in their reading and preparing assessments to nurture a comprehensive understanding besides an interest in the substantive or procedural law. Therefore, it is imperative not only to analyse students' video-generated assessment as an effective mode of assessment but also to determine the appropriate rubric. The creation of a video requires mind, inspiration, and interest to mould up throughout the editing process. Answering problems posed to them through video production incorporates knowledge, analytical assessment of the issues, and concluding the findings to ensure every aspect of the issues is addressed. This paper aims to evaluate whether video assessment during ODL is in line with the theory of motivation that enhanced students' understanding of online classes. This is qualitative research whereby a doctrinal method is engaged that reflects a better perception by students for video assessment compared to applications of law through writings. As such, 209 students from the Faculty of Law, Universiti Teknologi MARA were selected as the respondents. This study concluded that using video creation as a form of assessment enhance law students' communication skill to impart professional legal advice through a creative role-play. This exercise allows the students to improve their understanding of conveyancing law and procedure in a more casual yet effective method. To ensure efficacy, the rubric for video assessments shall be clear, precise, and lecturers should convey their reflections to students. It is also important for educators to find out whether the findings of
It is crucial to safeguard the interests of tenants and landlords in their tenancy agreements to achieve the concept of justice and equality. Malaysia has not yet had a specific law to govern the relationship between tenants and landlords whereby the rights and obligations of both parties are stipulated inside their tenancy agreement. Suppose there is a breach in the contracts. In that case, the jurisdiction to settle such disputes will be referred to the relevant laws in Malaysia, such as the National Land Code (Revised 2020) (Act 828), Contracts Act 1950, Specific Relief Act 1950, and Distress Act 1951. Even so, such legislation remains vague in resolving specific issues about the entrance of parties into a tenancy agreement which will be further discussed in this study. Further discussed are the rights and obligations of both parties based on their contractual agreement and, subsequently, the proposed solutions. A comparative study is made with Australia and New Zealand on the legal issues relating to the relationship between the landlord and tenant. The findings from this study portray a need to adopt a single statute to govern the relationship between tenants and landlords in Malaysia, namely the Residential Tenancies Act.
The Malaysian land law provides that the title shall be indefeasible upon registration and security of tenure is guaranteed. However, for the Orang Asli, the Aboriginal Peoples Act 1954 (Act 134) only declares a communal right to the native for them to live and the right to revoke the declaration is vested in the government. It is now left to the court's decision in case law to decide the fate of the Orang Aslis' rights to land. This article aims to examine the Orang Aslis' land rights and the involuntary resettlement compensation accorded to them by using a doctrinal approach.

Section 73 of Islamic Family Law (Selangor) Enactment 2003 provides that it is the duty of the paternal family to provide maintenance to the children in the event of the father’s death, missing in action or suffers from any disabilities. However, the efficiency of this provision depends on the understanding and application by the courts and the person who is said to be liable under ‘hukum syarak’. Currently there is not many studies conducted on the efficiency of this provision in solving cases where there is a failure to provide maintenance to children in the circumstances stated above. This study analyses the application of section 73 of Islamic Family Law (Selangor) Enactment 2003 with the aim of looking into the efficiency of this section in solving the issue children’s maintenance. The study adopts a qualitative method that involves doctrinal study, arm-researcher approach and semi-structured interviews. The provision, scope and jurisdiction of section 73 of Islamic Family Law (Selangor) Enactment 2003 is analysed in detail. The semi-structured interview delves into the current practice of the court in the Federal Territories where the views of selected respondents ranging from the judges in the Shariah courts in the Federal Territories, Shariah law practitioner, and academics. This study finds that the existing laws are somewhat insufficient in addressing issues of child maintenance and lack of awareness on the claimant (mother and children) on the responsibility of the extended family. The study proposed some recommendations for some reforms of the current law and practice.
