There are those, of course who maintain that the implementation of hudud offers a good answer to the problem of rising criminality and that in any case, Muslims have no choice in the matter of implementing divine law.

This article aims at looking into the nature of hadd in the first place, reviewing the present Hudud Bills and trace the loopholes in them, and finally suggest some recommendations to solve the problem of implementing hudud law in a multiracial society like Malaysia. |
