If your Mulkiya expires, then you are legally liable to renew your car insurance because you cannot renew your Mulkiya without having valid car insurance.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1789628827896\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I drive during the 13th month of my car insurance after my Mulkiya expires?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No, you should not drive legally during the 13th month of car insurance(after Mulkiya expiry).
