Membership shall also be open to the non-Khoja spouse of a member of the Jamaat, provided the spouse has attained the age of 18 years, professes the Shia Ithna-Asheri faith and is interested in promoting the Objects. Any child of such a marriage shall also be eligible to be a member of the Jamaat provided he or she has attained the age of 18 years, professes the Shia Ithna-Asheri faith and is interested in promoting the Objects.
    5.4 A member whose subscription is at least three months in arrears shall have his membership suspended which shall automatically be reinstated retrospectively on payment of the amount due.

    5.7 Membership of the Jamaat shall not be transferable and shall cease automatically if a member ceases to be a Muslim professing the Shia Ithna-Asheri faith.
    5.8 A member will not enjoy the full rights of membership if in addition to the membership of the Jamaat he is a member of another Khoja Shia-Ithna-Asheri Jamaat anywhere in the world. Where such dual membership exists, then the membership of the Jamaat will be deemed to be guest membership and as such, will preclude such member from voting at General Meetings or from standing for any position in the Executive Committee. In all other aspects, he will enjoy the benefits of membership
