Mak Nyahs in Malaysia: does HIV/AIDS knowledge really reduce HIV-related risk behaviours?

Introduction. Male-to-female transgender individuals are known as mak nyahs in Malaysia. Akin to many other countries, mak nyahs face discriminations in securing proper employment, thus many end up in sex trade, exposing them to HIV-related high risk behaviours. This paper aims to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and risk behaviours in HIV/AIDS among mak nyahs in Malaysia. Method. Validated questionnaires in local language were used. Knowledge, attitude, and HIV-related risk behaviours were measured. With respondent-driven sampling method, 54 subjects participated in the survey. IBM SPSS was used for data analysis. Results. Majority of the subjects reported to have HIV-related sexual risk, although only a quarter were sex workers. Misconceptions still remained among the subjects. Inconsistent condom use was common. Adequate knowledge did result in better attitude towards HIV/AIDS. However, multiple regression analysis showed that subjects with higher knowledge in HIV/AIDS tend to have higher sexual risks (β = 0.320, p = 0.030). Conclusion. Educating the transgender community about HIV/AIDS does not seem to adequately reduce the HIV-related sexual risks. Other approaches, i.e. socio-cultural values and religious practices may be effective to instil higher levels of awareness and self-responsibility in this community to eliminate HIVrelated high risk behaviours

Addressing Muslim transgenders' health issues using religious approach in the Malaysia setting

Male-to-female transgenders are discriminated in Malaysia due to their gender expression, their involvement in the sex trade, and the high prevalence of HIV infection in this community. They are burdened by many health issues including HIV and sexually transmitted diseases, psychiatric problems, substance abuse, and complications resulting from feminizing procedures. Although majority of the transgender community is Muslim, many of them are far from religious guidance due to discrimination and fear towards criminalization. Efforts are needed to tackle the risks and vulnerability in health issues in the mak nyah community. This paper discusses the health issues faced by transgenders in Malaysia, and also describes an integrated method in helping the transgender community

The use of ceramic product derived from non-halal animal bone: is it permissible from the perspective of Islamic law?

A ceramic product derived from the bones of non-halal animal has become an issue for Muslims in terms of its status whether it is halal or haram. The status can be determined by scrutinizing the transformation process or namely as istiḥālah either a complete change (istiḥālah kāmilah) or an incomplete change (istiḥālah ghayr kāmilah).

The role of the National Council of Fatwa Committee (Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Kebangsaan) as a national body that issues fatwa is authorized and acknowledged. However, the fatwa issued by this body still needs to go through the State Fatwa Committee before it is adopted at the state level. Hence, this article aims to analyze the decision acceptance forms of theMuzakarah of the National Council of Fatwa Committee (MJF) by the Pahang Syarie Legal Adjudication Committee (JPHSNP) for the fatwa that has been discussed and decided on the national level. Based on the method of data collection and analysis of document contents, this literature study has revisited previous studies conducted on the issue of fatwa coordination in Malaysia. However, after the study, the findings have yet to achieve the goals that are fully desired. The findings conclude that, there are three forms of decision adopted by JPHSNP against the fatwa decided by MJF i.e agreeing unanimously, agreed by majority or deferring decisions
