摘要

由于马来西亚复杂的法律体系,穆斯林皈依者别无选择,只能与配偶协商皈依或向法院提出离婚申请。本研究旨在探讨穆斯林皈依者关于其皈依伊斯兰教的法律含义的法律话语和叙述,特别是在解除民事婚姻的情况下。为了获得经历过这一问题的穆斯林皈依者的叙述,本研究对9名参与者(7名印度人、1名中国人和1名土著人)进行了深入的半结构化采访,他们是马来西亚城市中备受瞩目的穆斯林皈依。这项研究发现,这项研究的一些参与者分享了他们关于马来西亚民法和伊斯兰法如何对皈依者的婚姻生活和家庭动态产生重大影响的叙述。这项研究可以成为紧急呼吁修改相关法律的基础,特别是与“书中之人”(Kitabiyyah)的定义、非穆斯林配偶皈依伊斯兰教的时间以及废除伊斯兰法院民事婚姻解除的法律程序有关的法律。在马来西亚之外,这项研究对于描述宗教皈依如何影响多民族和多信仰社会中的个人、家庭动态和关系很重要。

Legal Implications of Conversion to Islam on Civil Marriage: Narrative of Converts in Malaysia
Due to a complex legal system in Malaysia, Muslim converts were left with no other option but to negotiate with their spouse to convert or file a petition for divorce in court. This study intends to explore the legal discourse and narratives of Muslim converts on the legal implications of their conversion to Islam, particularly in the cases of dissolution of civil marriage. To obtain the narratives of Muslim converts whom experienced this issue, this study employed in-depth semi-structured interviews with 9 participants (7 Indians, 1 Chinese, and 1 Bumiputera) whom are high-profile Muslim converts in urban Malaysia. This research has found that some participants in this study shared their narratives on how Malaysian law, both civil and Islamic law, has significant implications that affects converts’ marital lives and family dynamics. This study can become the foundation for an urgent call to revise the relevant laws, especially relating to the definition of People of the Book (Kitabiyyah), the period allocated for the non-Muslim spouse to convert to Islam, and the abolition of legal process of civil marriage dissolution in Shariah court. Beyond Malaysia, this study is important to depict how religious conversion impacts individuals, family dynamics and relations within a multi-ethnic and multi-faith society.
