Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Muslim law is a personal law: it attaches to the person because of his religion, not to the territory where he is, so a Muslim goes to any country "With his personal law". Whether a foreign court will apply or recognise it depends on that country's own law, but he does not leave his personal law behind by travelling.
