The Evolution of Shariah Criminal Legislation in Selangor: A Review of Jurisdictional Scope, Constraints, and the Role of Administrative Agencies

Abstract

Perkembangan undang-undang jenayah Islam di Malaysia boleh dibahagikan kepada beberapa peringkat, iaitu zaman Kesultanan Melayu, penjajahan British, awal kemerdekaan, dan pasca kemerdekaan. Setiap peringkat tersebut memberi impak yang besar terhadap perkembangan undang-undang Islam, terutamanya dalam bidang kuasa jenayah Islam di Malaysia pada masa kini. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk meninjau perkembangan undang-undang jenayah Islam yang telah mengalami perubahan signifikan sejak pemerintahan kolonial British. Metodologi yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan pendekatan analisis kandungan, di mana data dikumpulkan dan dianalisis melalui dokumen undang-undang, kajian kes, dan sumber lain untuk mendapatkan pemahaman yang mendalam mengenai perkembangan undang-undang jenayah Islam. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa perkembangan undang-undang jenayah syariah bukan sahaja melibatkan pengkanunan undang-undang, tetapi juga merangkumi aspek pentadbiran undang-undang jenayah Islam. Kajian ini memberikan pemahaman yang lebih jelas mengenai perkembangan undang-undang jenayah syariah, kekangan yang dihadapi, serta peranan agensi pentadbiran dalam mencadangkan penambahbaikan kepada sistem undang-undang jenayah syariah di Malaysia.

The development of Islamic criminal law in Malaysia can be divided into several stages which are the era of the Malay sultanate, the era of British colonialism, the early days of independence and the era after independence. Each of these phases has had a significant impact on the evolution of Islamic law, particularly in terms of the jurisdiction of Islamic criminal law in Malaysia today. This article aims to review the development of Islamic criminal law, which has undergone significant changes since the British colonial administration. A qualitative methodology with content analysis was employed to collect and analyze data from legal documents, case studies, and other sources to gain a deeper understanding of the development of Islamic criminal law. The findings reveal that the development of Syariah criminal law involves not only the codification of laws but also the administration of Islamic criminal law. This study is important for gaining a clearer understanding of the development of Syariah criminal law, the constraints faced, and the role of administrative agencies in suggesting improvements to the Islamic criminal law system in Malaysia.
