Salafism in Malaysia: Historical Account on Its Emergence and Motivations
sociology of islam 5 (2017) 303-333 brill.com/soi Salafism in Malaysia: Historical Account on Its Emergence and Motivations Maszlee Malik International Islamic University, Malaysia [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The term Salafism refers to an interpretation of Islam that seeks to restore Islamic faith and practice to the way they existed at the time of Prophet Muhammad and the early generations of his followers. Since this early period represented the golden age of Islam in its pure form, Salafis believe it should be the example followed by all Mus- lims today. Salafism as a trend and theological movement has been a point of interest to many researchers due to the current global political escalation. It has been a focal point of issues related to global terrorism, radicalism, post-Arab Spring politics, reli- gious trends as well as theological debates. Salafism, more often known as Wahabism, has come to Malaysia at different times and with different motivations. The early brand of Salafism in pre-Malaysia Tanah Melayu, or Malaya, was the emergence of the early 20th century reformist Salafi movement, known as Kaum Muda, inspired by the Middle Eastern Abduh-Afghani Pan Islamism. Despite the differences between that and the current global Salafism they share the same roots. Additionally, according to numerous historical accounts, the current Salafi trend in Malaysia is closely related to the global Islamic revivalism of the 1970s and 1980s, and was also affected by the return of Malaysian students studying abroad during the 1990s and early 2000s. Evidence has shown that the emergence of Salafism in Malaysia has contributed directly and indi- rectly to the mainstream discourse of Islamic theology and Islamic worldview amongst Malaysian Muslims in general, and Islamic organizations in particular. -

Theology in Malaysia: Between the Mainstream and the Periphery
Theology in Malaysia: Between the Mainstream and the Periphery Maszlee Malik* Abstract Ever since the beginning of the Sultanate, which was for most of its history ruled from Malacca, the Ašʿarī theology has been the dominating theological discourse of Muslims in the region. This is mainly due to the influence of Sufi traders and scholars, who are gener- ally considered to be responsible for the expansion of Islam over such a large territory. These people were mostly followers of the Ašʿarī theology. Although this theology had prevailed in Malaysia for centuries, its predominant position was challenged by the global reform idea which emerged during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Beginning with the Afġānī and ʿAbduh-inspired ‘Kaum Muda’ reform movement, global changes continued to influence Malaysian Islam throughout the 20th century. This was especially notable during the period of Islamic revivalism during the 1970s and 1980s, a period which brought the synthesis of the ‘traditional’ Islamic theology with a new theology inspired by Islamic revivalists. This battle to define the official Islamic theology of Malaysia became even more interesting at the dawn of the 21st century with the rapid spread of the internet. How- ever, besides the clashes between the two Sunni theologies, which are involved in a pro- tracted struggle to become the official state theology, the period of Islamic revivalism also witnessed the arrival of Shiism in Malaysia. The presence of this stream of Islam in Ma- laysia can be regarded as a direct result of the 1979 Iranian revolution. Although only a relatively small number of people adhere to this branch of Islam in Malaysia, Shiism has been viewed suspiciously and as a threat to the religious establishment and to the country’s security. -

Ia juga merupakan dokumen penting dalam memberikan informasi mengenai budaya masyarakat yang dikunjungi. Seperti genre-genre sastera yang lain, travelog Melayu juga mempunyai sumbangan yang tersendiri dalam membantu kita menganalisis falsafah hidup masyarakat Melayu. Ramai yang berpendapat bahawa travelog Melayu banyak persamaannya dengan travelog Barat. Ada yang beranggapan bahawa travelog Melayu hanya muncul setelah adanya pertembungan ekonomi, politik dan sosial antara dunia Melayu dengan dunia Barat, iaitu semasa berlakunya penjajahan Barat ke atas negeri-negeri Melayu. -
