\n——————————————————
\nThailand’s Office of the Grand Mufti and the Courts of Justice have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish a formal mediation system for resolving disputes in accordance with Islamic law.<\/p>\n
The agreement, signed in Bangkok on June 24, aims to develop mediation mechanisms, train accredited mediators, and enable Muslims to settle disputes through Sharia-based mediation while remaining in compliance with Thai law.<\/p>\n
