Islam & Asean Civililation


Now, we're discussing about civilization. What the best description about it, many references which I've been done. Wikipedia mentioned " Civilization (or civilisation) is a sometimes controversial term that has been used in several related ways". Based on my mind, civilization is a mindset that we prefers our beliefs or knowledge to what we looked, we have different sight to declare something like side of human cultures that are complex in terms of technology, science.

Islam in Malaysia

Before Islam coming to Malaysia, the indigenous Malays have many beliefs such as Hindu or Buddha religion. Life was structured that many religion comes to Malaysia not only Islam, but nowadays most of people are Islam.  We looked in other ways, at the political level, the rules and the head of the state in most communities in the Malay world embraced the Islamic religion. Citizen were impressed by the provision in the Qur'an & Hadith that mandkind should be ranked on a basis of interpersonal equality.


Spreading Islam in Malaysia

After Islam comes to Malaysia, now the next tasks is spreading an knowledge to influence the people which don't know anything about this religion or only the basic that they know. The religion was spread by local Muslim scholars or ulama' from one district to another. Their normal practice was to open a religious training centre called "pondok" or hut from the small sleeping quarters constructed for the students. In addition to giving lectures in houses, prayer houses, or mosques, they also performed tasks such as working in padi fields, gardening and craftwork and other jobs according to each individual's capabilities.
