Woman fails in bid to renounce Islam
29 Mar 2007


KOTA KINABALU: A 24-year-old Muslim woman yesterday failed in her application to renounce Islam on the grounds that she did not practise the religion and was never given religious education.

Syariah High Court judge Jasri @ Nasip Matjakir said the applicant did not submit any concrete evidence that she was no longer a Muslim in action, behaviour or deed that could expel her from Islam.

In her affidavit, read by counsel Hamid Ismail, the Sino-Kadazan said her non-Muslim lifestyle would cause society to look down on her and she would be subjected to the judgment of the syariah court.



The applicant’s father was a Muslim while her mother, a Sino-Kadazan, converted when the couple got married.

Hamid said the basis of her application was under Article 11 of the Federal Constitution — that she had the right to choose her religion and must not be prevented from doing so by anyone.

This is as held by the Su- preme Court in the case of Minister of Home Affairs, Malaysia and Anor v Jamaluddin bin Othman, 1989 1 MLJ 418.

The second basis was that Islamic law on apostasy is not applicable in Malaysia because there is no total application of Islamic law in Malaysia.

Jasri, in his judgment, said although the Federal Constitution did state that every individual deserved to choose his or her religion, it did not give authority to the syariah court to allow Muslims to renounce their religion. "The court can only decide whether one’s action is permissible according to Muslim laws.

"The reasons given by the applicant are based on fear of punishment which is against the teachings of Islam. Is fear a good enough reason?

"The court finds the reasons given are weak and not one that can be used as permissible to murtad (leave Islam)."

என்று கூறுகிறார் நீதிபதி. இஸ்லாமிய சட்டம் முழுமையாக நிறைவேற்றப்பட்டிருந்தால், இஸ்லாமை விட்டு வெளியேறினால் என்ன தண்டனை? மரண தண்டனையா?

Pak Hindus denied entry to Lyari's Shiva temple
From our ANI Correspondent

Karachi, Apr.3: While Hindus all over the world celebrated Hanuman Jayanti (the birth anniversary of Hanuman) on Monday, residents of Pawal Das compound in Lyari were denied entry to the historical Shiv Mandir located in the area.

The News quoted sources at the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP) as saying that the ground on which the temple was located had been taken over by a self-styled Pir, Syed Hussain Mian Bukhari.

The HRCP has now called on the Government of Sindh and the City Mayor to take immediate action against the encroachment, and ensure that the rights of Hindus are protected in the larger interest of communal harmony.

According to the statement issued on Monday, the Pawal Das compound was constructed in 1901 with more than100 houses of the Hindu community located here as well as an old temple called Shiv Mandir. The compound was exclusively earmarked for Hindus by the Government of Sindh province under the Evacuee Property Act 1957.

However, with the help of local authorities, land grabbers have been forcibly evicting residents from that compound as a result of which only 35 families are now left there.

Residents of the area brought this development to the attention of the HRCP, which has now taken up their cause.
