This approach has been done by many idiots from the Philippines who maintain a concubine overseas. These morons falsely believe that converting to Islam will save them from prosecution of concubinage.
Philippine criminal law states that crime is jurisdictional, if it didnt happen in the Phils, then these morons can escape prosecution, and the lawfully wedded wife is left in the Philippines holding an empty husband's underwear.
Since they are working in Islamic country, they also falsely believe that they (him and his paramour) can escape prosecution by the host country. Commission of a crime and prosecution thereof is subject to the laws enforced at the time of commission. If the guilty parties are not allowed by thier religion to contract more than one marriage at the time of the commission of the offense, then both are liable under the penal laws enforced in the host country. In other words, christian filipinos who commit concubinage in any Islamic country are always liable for prosecution.
Where both guilty parties are nationals of the same country, such as the Philippines, they can be both deported and prosecuted in the Philippines even if the crime is committed overseas if a bilateral treaty exist between the Phils and the offended state.
In the matter of rape, this is punishable everywhere, irrespective of religion or nationality, and Islamic laws prescribe more severe punishment on such crimes.
In Qatar in fact, its penal code even punishes rape, sexual lasciviousness, sexual harassment comitted by men against men, and the severest punishment can even be death.
So filipino morons, my fellow countrymen, its your choice.
