Under the Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act, 1937, Muslim Law does not apply to which of the following?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
The central text of section 2 of the Shariat Application Act, 1937 excepts "questions relating to agricultural land" while listing gifts, maintenance and trusts among matters governed by Shariat. Agricultural succession therefore falls outside that central statutory direction, subject to relevant State amendments and land laws.
