                                          ABSTRACT
Volume   11, Issue 1 (2023) of the Malaysian Journal of Syariah and Law (MJSL) showcases a diverse
collection of articles and case studies that make significant contributions to the international scholarly
community.  The  articles delve into crucial topics such as the treatment of uncontrollable children,
offering a comparative analysis of international and Malaysian legal frameworks. Another  article
examines  cultured meat through the lenses of fiqh and Sufism, providing valuable insights into its
compatibility with Islamic principles. The study on punitive labor in Oman analyzes its application
within the Omani  legal system, considering its alignment with international standards. Additionally,
the volume addresses the challenges of controlling territorial borders during the COVID-19 pandemic,
focusing on maritime areas. The use of gelatin in halal pharmaceutical products is explored, ensuring
compliance with Islamic dietary regulations. This issue also includes studies on the application of non-
ratified international treaties, offering new perspectives on their judicial implementation. Furthermore,
the contextualization of Maqasid al-Shariah according to the objectives of the individual, family,
society, and humanity is thoroughly examined. A comparative analysis of social solidarity in Islam and
contemporary  economic  systems contributes to the discourse on economic justice. The case studies
within this volume provide insights into the constitutional position of the continental shelf in Malaysia,
shedding  light on the legal provisions and implications surrounding  its resources. Additionally,
protocols for validating the status of illegitimate children in Syariah law are presented, offering
valuable guidance in teaching and learning approaches for this area of study. Lastly, an intellectual
dialogue with an esteemed professor in peace and conflict studies enriches the scholarly discourses. A
book review on advancing  the legal status of women in Islamic law provides critical insights into this
significant subject in specific to the written literature. The contributions within this volume deepen our
understanding of these topics, stimulate further scholarly exploration, and foster the advancement of
knowledge  in the field of Syariah and Law.
