SIS lauds 'bin Abdullah' ruling, but says children born out of wedlock need more protection

PETALING JAYA: Sisters in Islam (SIS) welcomes the Federal Court's ruling to make the National Registration Department (NRD) remove "bin Abdullah" from the birth certificate of a Muslim boy born out of wedlock in Johor.

However, the NGO called for a ruling that addressed the core issue of the stigmatisation of Muslim children born out of wedlock.
