177. However, pursuant to the shariah, the Act on personal status gives men the right to marry women belonging to other monotheistic religions but does not accord that right to women, since article 33 stipulates that "the marriage shall be null and void in the following instances: (a) if a Muslim woman is joined with a non-Muslim man; (b) if a Muslim man is joined with a woman who is not an adherent of one of religions of the Book; (c) if a man is joined with a woman whose ties of kinship with him prohibit this union".
No obstante, en consonancia con la shar'ia, la ley sobre el estatuto personal concede al hombre el derecho de casarse con una mujer que pertenezca a otra religión monoteísta, derecho del que no goza la mujer, ya que en el artículo 33 se estipula que "el matrimonio es nulo si: a) une a una musulmana con alguien que no es musulmán; b) si une a un musulmán con una mujer que no pertenece a una de las religiones del Libro; c) si une un hombre a una mujer con quien le está prohibido casarse por lazos de parentesco".
