Shariah Court is an institution that plays an important role in governing divorces in Malaysia. The increase of divorce cases that occur in Malaysia pressurizes the Shariah Court in some ways. The administration of these divorce cases needs to be administered more effectively to ensure the smoothness of each case. This study was done to investigate and identify the most registered cases in the Shariah Court in Malaysia. In addition, this study serves to identify the workflow for the newly introduced project concerning divorce cases called “the fast track”. This will help to overcome the divorce case backlogs that will happen in the future. To ensure the success of this study, a number of employees has been interviewed, ranging from the judges, attorneys and assistant registrars for the Shariah Court. The results of the study showed that enactment section 47, Islamic Family Law is among the most registered cases and constantly increasing every year. The fast track is seen as a good method, but some things need to be taken care of to ensure its effectiveness. Consistent work force is also required to ensure this fast project achieves its potential in administering divorce cases in the Shariah courts. Keywords: Islamic Family Law, fast track, Shariah Law, Shariah Court, governing divorce admininstration in Malaysia

The Law

Islamic Family Law is one of the most studied fields in Malaysian law. This is because it affects the personal life of Muslims, and because many issues have arisen as a result of the implementation of the Islamic Family Law Enactment which governs Muslims in Malaysia. Scholarship in this area has expanded with the development of the Enactment itself. Several approaches have been used to analyze the implementation of the lawinter alia,legal, socio-legal, comparative, and anthropological and sociological perspecitves. It cannot be denied that research and scholarly publications in the field of Islamic Family Law have contributed to further strengthening the administration of justice and the implementation of the law. As such, this paper is intended to describe the trends in the area of Islamic Family Law. Doing so will assist in ascertaining the direction of this field in the future.

The Future

SOVIET economic policy in the few years since Stalin's death has been characterized by flamboyance and ferment. In an attempt to free economic growth from the bottleneck of stagnation in agriculture, Khrushchev has sponsored some extravagant gambles in corn-growing and in expansion of the sown acreage. Policy toward the consumer has gone through two complete reversals: the regime at first experimented with offering the population an improvement in the standard of living, but is now once again asserting that abundance in the future requires austerity today. Perhaps the most startling innovation of all emerged in the past year when the regime began to develop a program of foreign economic assistance as a weapon in its economic competition with the capitalist part of the world. Because of their spectacular nature, these shifts of policy have attracted considerable attention in the West and have been commented on at length. Aware diat the Soviet Union is expanding her economic power at a more rapid rate than are the capitalist countries, Western students of the Soviet economy have sought in these policy changes-some clue as to whether its rate of growth is likely to decline or to be maintained in the future. The early indications of a rise in standards of living that would cause a reduced growth of heavy industry and so a decline in investment and in the rate of growth have now been dispelled. The inability of Soviet agriculture to provide an expanding food supply for a growing work force certainly appears to be a real threat to industrial growth, and with die failure of Khrushchev's gambles, this threat remains. Thus the evidence as to the over-all effect of these changes on the rate of expansion of die Soviet economy is still inconclusive.

This paper aims to explain the dilemma that occurs in marital relationships. The issue of performing the external or internal maintenance obligation on the husband who has HIV / AIDS causes the wife to suffer. Thus, a qualitative study has been done to identify the dilemma that occurs in the relationship between husband and wife. Archival research methods such as the provisions of Islamic Family Law (UUKI), fiqh munakahat and case studies have been used. Interview methods were also performed to answer the objectives of the study. A total of 8 respondents, namely the wives of AIDS sufferers, were interviewed to obtain study data and the data was finally analyzed manually (QDA). The results show that there is discrimination against people living with HIV / AIDS (OHDHA) (wife) in the form of external and internal maintenance (husband and wife relationship). Even sadder, all respondents have been infected with HIV / AIDS as a result of intimate relationships with their husbands. The study finally concludes that OHDHA (wife) needs guidance and understanding of how to deal with the dilemma of performing duties as a wife and avoiding darar treatment from her partner (husband). Keywords: UUKI, Obligation, Wife, nafkah, HIV/AIDS. Makalah ini bertujuan menjelaskan dilema yang berlaku dalam hubungan suami isteri.

By Abdullahi A. An-Na'im, ed. London: Zed Books, 2002As the quintessential identity battleground, family law in Muslim countries and communities is one of the hottest political and developmental topics. Those situated within these contexts constantly find themselves struggling for progressive or (more often than not) against regressive reform, while for those with the outsider's gaze, 'understanding' Muslim communities is currently a major preoccupation.
