    The role of the accused in English and Islamic criminal justice

    No full text
    This thesis is a comparative study of the role of the accused in the systems of English and Islamic criminal justice. It seeks to explore the underlying relationship between the individual and the state through an historical, structural and contextual analysis of their rules relating to questioning and of confessions. The analysis of the English system covers the period 1800 to 1984, with particular reference to developments during the nineteenth century when the foundations for the modern English state were established. The analysis of the Islamic system combines traditionally Islamic and modern methods, assessing the "Islamisation" movement in Malaysia through a religico-structural understanding of juristic opinion from the four main schools of Sunnite jurisprudence. The thesis contributes to existing knowledge on a number of levels: first, it questions and revises the "myth" of "progress" that has dominated observations of the history of the English criminal justice system; second, it elucidates the relationship between Islamic law in theory and the law that is applied and proposed in its name in Muslim states; third, it provides an analytical framework for drawing comparisons between the underlying values of the systems of English and Islamic criminal justice. While acknowledging fundamental differences in terms of outlook and articulation, the author concludes there are important similarities expressed through such notions as "suspect" in the English system and "kafir"I"fasiq" in the Islamic. These act as intermediate constitutional categories to whom the state owe less protection. But the author notes also that these similarities are not observed necessarily in the "law" which is implemented or proposed in Muslim states; exact correspondence depends upon the over-arching political structure and the institution of Caliphate. The thesis is divided into six chapters: chapter one sets out the conventional view of the historical development of English criminal procedure and evidence; chapter two subjects that to a critique and chapter three offers a revised thesis. Chapter four, explores methods for interpreting and explaining Islam; chapter five sets out rules relating to confessions and questioning according to the four Sunni schools; chapter six puts them into "context" through an examination of the "Islamisation" process in Malaysia

    The Malaysia homestay programme began informally in the 1970s with the involvement of the local community, who provided accommodation, breakfast, and dinner to foreign tourists by charging a minimal price compared to hotels or resorts (Hamzah, 2008; Kayat, 2010; Ibrahim & Razzaq, 2010). At that time, most of the Malays, who live in Malay kampungs (villages) along the beach and in rural areas, provided their houses as homestays for tourists (Ibrahim & Razzaq, 2010). In 1988, with encouragement and support from the Ministry of Tourism, a community of five villages in Pahang—consisting of Desa Murni Sanggang, Desa Murni Ketam, Desa Murni Perangap, Desa Murni Sonsang, and Desa Murni Kerdau—established the Desa Murni Homestay as a model for the new Malaysian Homestay Programme (Kayat & Nor, 2006). These villages are located in the Desa Murni area, which is a 15-minute drive from Temerloh, Pahang (Pusiran & Xiao, 2013). The homestay programme provided cultural, social, environmental, and economic benefits to the local population. Following the programme’s success, the Minister of Tourism launched the Malaysia Homestay Programme on the 3rd of December 1995 at Desa Murni, Temerloh, Pahang. This programme was opened to all rural villages in Malaysia (Malay kampungs, Chinese New Villages, Indian settlements, and Orang Asli villages). However, only Malay kampungs participated in this programme since Malays form the majority of populated rural areas. To regulate the homestay programme, the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture (MOTAC) listed the criteria for the house owner (host) to abide by, such as easy access from the main road; suitable house size and separate room for the guest; high standard of hygiene; and the security and safety of parties involved (MOTAC, 2022a). Homeowners are required to attend a training course conducted by the Institute for Rural Advancement (INFRA) under the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development. This requirement aims to ensure that the homestay programme can be successfully implemented

    The Malaysia homestay programme began informally in the 1970s with the involvement of the local community, who provided accommodation, breakfast and dinner to foreign tourists upon charging at minimal prices compared to hotels and resorts (Hamzah, 2008; Kayat, 2009; Ibrahim & Abdul Razzaq, 2010). At that time, most of the Malays, who lived in Malay ‘kampungs’ (villages) along the coastal and rural areas turned their houses as homestays for tourists (Ibrahim & Abdul Razzaq, 2010). In 1988, with the encouragement and support from the Ministry of Tourism, a commune of five villages in Pahang—consisting of Desa Murni Sanggang, Desa Murni Ketam, Desa Murni Perangap, Desa Murni Sonsang, and Desa Murni Kerdau—established the Desa Murni Homestay as a model for the new Malaysian Homestay Programme (Kayat & Nor, 2006).

This homestay programme in turn, brought cultural, social, environmental, and economic benefits to the local population

    THE TEACHINGS OF IBRAHIM IN JUDAISM AND ISLAM

    No full text
    Ibrahim is the father of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The three religions have experienced debate on several issues and fought in several battles. One way to break the wall that stands around them is to know the origin of the three religions. In this case, Ibrahim is a figure recognized by each of these religions. Then it is necessary to have further study of Abraham to elaborate the similarities and differences of the three religions. The story of Ibrahim himself still inspires adherents of all three religions to be good Jews, Christians and Muslims. But researchers only focused on two religions, Judaism and Islam. Because Abraham’s teachings in Judaism and Islam were more integrated into the concept of monotheism that there was only one God worthy of worship and opposition to all kinds of paganism and polytheism. This research is aimed to find out more about teachings of Ibrahim in Judaism and Islam as well as to explore fundamental things in each religion which are then linked to the point of similarities and differences. This research is a type of qualitative research in the form of literature using the theological approach. The method that the researcher uses is analysis, descriptive, and comparative techniques, the technique is a study based on data, analyzes, and interprets comparative and correlative things. This will be applied when the author builds a basic view of Abraham’s Theology in Judaism and Islam and analyzes several points in Abraham’s teachings between them by looking for points of similarity and difference. This research is generally based on the history of mankind, then focuses on the study of the Bible (Old Testament) and the Holy Qur’an in which the results are compared and assessed by the reader. In the context of the teachings inherited by Abraham, there are differences that often trigger conflicts between the two religions. Among the teachings of the prophet Abraham which are clearly displayed in both religions are Circumcision, Sacrifice, and Hajj.In the end, the authors conclude that the fundamental difference between the two is caused by different ways of receiving inherited teachings from Prophet Ibrahim. historically, Prophet Ibrahim called upon his people according to what God revealed to him. It was the changes in the Torah and the Old Testament which made the teachings of Prophet Ibrahim in both religions no longer in line. Another case in Islam that believes that the teachings of Abraham were perfected by the last prophet, namely Muhammad SAW and the Qur’an, the Muslim holy book is as a complement to the previous books. Finally, the researcher realized that in this research there are many weakness in several aspects. Therefore, the researcher suggest the readers and researchers in future to complete the shortage in this research in order to obtain the great result in academic aims

    No full text
    In this chapter, the author discusses the second part of Muhammad al-Muwaylihi's Hadith ʻIsa Ibn Hisham, the ‘second journey’ (Al-Rihla al-thaniya). The author published his Oxford DPhil thesis of 1968, a translation and commentary on Hadith ʻIsa Ibn Hisham, in book form upon the suggestion of Mustafa Badawi. It appeared in 1992 as A Period of Time (Fatra min al-zaman). Later in the 1990s another Egyptian scholar, Gaber Asfour, requested the author to prepare for publication the complete works of Muhammad al-Muwaylihis and his father Ibrahim. These also appeared in Cairo in 2002 and 2007 respectively. The author first provides a background on al-Muwaylihi's ‘first journey’ in Hadith ʻIsa Ibn Hisham before turning to Al-Rihla al-thaniya, al-Muwaylihi's account of his visit to Paris.</p
