Abstract

Claims after the divorce of Muslim women in the three southern Thailand provinces have been allocated through the application of Islamic Law 1946. However, it should be analyzed to see how far the women’s rights are protected and implemented in Muslim communities in three southern Thailand provinces. In this study, the author has analyzed and studied the files in the civil courts pertaining to the issue of mut‘ah, maintenance of ‘iddah, dowries, custody and matrimonial property. This study revealed that the number of claims after divorce in civil courts are at low levels despite the court played a positive role towards strengthening the application of Islamic law.
