The emergence of various new media that are viewed as becoming greater, more influential and capable of shaping the thoughts of the society is the greatest challenge in today's world. As a platform that functions as a double-edged sword, the social media crime involving children has become ubiquitous. The involvement of syndicate and groups among adults behind this crime, the irresponsible parents and families as well as the lack of religious or spiritual knowledge are believed to be the main factors behind the increasing trend of this crime. In Malaysia, research has shown that one out of every ten children under eighteen years old is the victim of the social media crime. The paper aims to analyse the development of social media and its impact on children with special reference to the Islamic principles. Methodology adopted are library-based study involving analysis of literature on evolvement of social media and its risk on children, and doctrinal analysis of the Islamic principles relevant to this. The paper examines the social media issues relating to children. Then, its identifies some of the Islamic principles that may provide alternative solution to the issue of children as victims in the social media. It is also suggested that, severe punishment to the individuals or groups that manipulate the children needs to be enforced and the commitment of parents, families and communities in eradicating the crimes also needs to be empowered.

In the Federation of Malaysia, Islam is the religion of the Federation but this does not extend to the legal perspective. In other words, Islamic law is not the supreme law of the Federation because the Federal Constitution has clearly stated that the supreme law of the country is the Constitution itself. This article aims to examine the status and implementation of Islamic law in Malaysia. At the onset, the article analyses the historical background of Islam in pre-Malaysia era with particular focus on its Islamic law perspective. The independence of Malaya in 1957 led to the formation of the Federal Constitution which is considered the main source of law in the country. This article assesses a number of provisions in the Constitutions and some related cases that touch on Islamic affairs. Also, the divisions of jurisdictions for both civil laws and Islamic laws is analysed against the backdrops of the Federal Constitution and other relevant legislations. To sum up, it can be said that despite the fact that Islam is given a special position under Article 3(1) of the Federal Constitution, Islamic law is not fully implemented in Malaysia. The jurisdiction awarded by the Ninth Schedule, List II State List is very limited, only confined to Muslim followers and is mostly related to personal laws, including amongst others: marriage; divorce; inheritance and other offences that are against the precepts of the religion of Islam. Civil laws, on the other hand, are subject to federal jurisdiction, which cannot interfere with the State laws such as the Islamic laws which fall under the State jurisdiction.
