	GR No. 119064 2000-08-22	NENG “KAGUI KADIGUIA” MALANG v. COROCOY MOSON GONZAGA-REYES, J.
against the retroactive opertion of laws.[36] Article 186 aforecited enunciates the general rule of the Muslim Code to have its provisions applied prospectively, and implicitly upholds the force and effect of a pre-existing body of law, specifically, the Civil Code in respect of civil acts that took place before the Muslim Code's enactment. Admittedly, an apparent antagonism arises when we consider that what the provisions of the Civil Code contemplate and nurture is a monogamous marriage. "Bigamous or polygamous marriages" are considered void and inexistent from the time of their performance.
