The Stage of Western Orientalists Scholarly Studies in Islam: A review] Peringkat pendekatan kajian sarjana Orientalis Barat terhadap Islam: Satu analisis

Majority of the orientalists adhere to the philosophy of logical empirical positivism, a belief that emphasizes on the total use of mind as a key approach to obtaining accurate scientific facts based on systematic and thorough method of research. This philosophy refuses to prove a fact using sources from the revelation because it is considered irrelevant in historical proof and has created biased and sceptical views about the Malay community in Malaya. This article focuses on the analysis of the orientalist approach in evaluating Islam, as well as the extent to which Islam influenced the lives of the people in Malaya. The author used historiography and comparative methods to analyse the orientalists’ views. The results showed that the orientalist thinking approach in evaluating Islam and its followers especially the Malay community presented a sceptical viewpoint, which has made each of these writings biased on a one-sided judgment and deviated from the historical development of the great Islamic civilization. This false judgement had emerged due to the weakness of the orientalists to understand the Muslims, especially the Malay community due to the European-centric thinking known as Euro-centrism. This thought elevated Europe as a great and civilized nation over other nations, the so-called "ambassador of civilization", and the saviour of all need-to-be civilized nations

Kefahaman pelajar sekolah agama terpilih di Selangor terhadap doktrin syiah / Mukhamad Khafiz Abdul Basir ... [et al.]

Kemunculan golongan Syiah mula kelihatan di Malaysia setelah tercetusnya revolusi Iran tahun 1979 menyebabkan ajaran mereka menular dalam masyarakat Melayu Islam. Ini dapat diperhatikan dengan kemunculan hauzah-hauzah Syiah Melayu di seluruh Malaysia, tangkapan-tangkapan pihak jabatan agama Islam negeri terhadap aktiviti penyebaran Syiah dan kemunculan para graduan Melayu daripada Iran dan lain-lain negara. Kajian ini bertujuan membongkar kesan pengaruh dakyah Syiah di Malaysia terhadap pelajar-pelajar sekolah agama menengah di Selangor serta tahap pengetahuan mereka terhadap ajaran ini. Kajian kuantitatif ini bersifat diskriptif menggunakan kaedah tinjauan (survey reseach) melalui instrumen soal selidik dan purposive sample kepada 756 pelajar-pelajar SPM tahun 2018 daripada 9 buah sekolah menengah asrama penuh. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa 7 responden mempunyai rakan berfahaman Syiah, 1 responden terlibat dengan ajaran Syiah, dan seramai 107 responden tidak pernah mendengar taklimat atau ceramah berkenaan dengan kesesatan Syiah. Justeru usaha menyedarkan masyarakat Islam dalam kalangan pelajar muslim tentang penyelewangan ajaran Syiah dan kesesatan mereka perlu ditekankan dan pendedahan secara berperingkat perlu dilaksanakan sebelum mereka melangkah ke alam universiti yang pastinya lebih terbuka dan mencabar

Ar-Rahnu scheme as flexible micro financing mechanism for society: Case study on YAPEIM Ar-Rahnu in State of Perak

The implementation of ar-rahnuscheme which aims to assist the poor and enhance Islamic banking institution in Malaysia, since 1993 has proven to be able to provide immediate micro financing services to those with financial difficulties. Nevertheless, after two decades in operation, it is found that the involvement of members of Malaysian society in the scheme is still relatively low where the participants are mainly those of low income and the poor. The unique scheme which is not driven by profit-making and free of riba (usury) elements should be expanded to benefit all people and not confined to certain groups only. Hence, this study is conducted to identify the level of knowledge among general public about the ar-rahnu system and the level of acceptance among the masses of the scheme as a means to solve financial problems. It is hoped that the study which focuses on ar-rahnu institution of YaPEIM can be used as a guideline by relevant agencies or parties to ensure greater involvement of members of the society in the scheme, thus further augment the position of ar-rahnu institution in mainstream Islamic banking system in Malaysia

The level of understanding of income zakat and its implementation among muslims in state of Perak

Income zakat is an annual tax or payment imposed on certain amount of income generated from either fixed or non-fixed sources, generally known as al-Mal al-Mustafad. In Malaysia, this kind of payment or zakat was first made mandatory in 1997 by National Fatwa Council Malaysia. The fatwa or decision was then gazetted by all state governments in Malaysia except that of Perak. This research aims to identify the level of understanding among Muslim community in the state of Perak regarding income zakat and its relevant procedures particularly the calculation of zakat. It is imperative to explore this issue since many Muslims of present day fail to perform zakat income as they are not aware of the tax or payment that has been made incumbent on them. Furthermore, the study also sheds light on the people’s level of understanding of how the zakat payment is to be calculated or counted. The findings of this study are useful for relevant agencies in particular religious bodies, in finding ways and means to disseminate awareness to the Muslims of their responsibility to pay income zakat, which will result in an increase of zakat revenue that can be then utilized for the enhancement of the economy of Muslims in the country
