Kota Kinabalu: The State Islamic Religious Affairs Department (Jheains) and the Sabah Islamic Religious Council (Muis) have become the first in Malaysia to issue a digital marriage certificate.

He said the digital certificate would be equipped with various security features that refer back to the Sabah Marriages database under the State Government’s database.
