  ABSTRACT: It is noteworthy that Malaysia and Nigeria are federal states by nature of their government, governance, and constitutions. In both countries, the federal constitutions are the supreme law of the land. However, there are efforts in both countries for full implementation of Islamic law including its criminal code also referred to as Hudud. Consequently, this study intends to find out who are these actors and agitators, and what are their reasons and motives despite the secular nature of the two countries and the negative impacts of already implemented parts of Islamic law. This study also intends to carry out a comparative study of Malaysia and Nigeria in the context of Islamic law implementation and how it affects human rights in existing literature. Scilicet is a comparative study on the Implementation of Islamic law in Malaysia and Nigeria, and its impact from the perspective of human rights violations broadly reviewed.
