Under section 19.10 of the ''[[Family Law Act]]'', the parties can choose their own law to govern the arbitration process. Nothing in the act says that this law cannot be a religious law. Judaism and Islam, for example, each have religious laws that can apply to family law disputes for members of those faiths. Members of the orthodox Jewish community may use Halakha to settle personal disputes. Muslims can use Sharia law for the same purpose.
