Description
Summary:This research paper attempts to propose the replacement of the costly and time consuming process for the distribution of estates of Muslims in Malaysia in four agencies with a cost-effective process in a single tribunal that have full information about estates and has expertise in Islamic and Civil laws. For this, the existing framework and process of estates distribution is evaluated. The overall process is lengthy, costly, and in some cases, it is ineffective. Duality of legal systems and multiplicity of administrative and judicial agencies are thought to be the causes of the problem. To remedy this problem, a single tribunal with a new process therefore is proposed.
