Description

Despite substantial socio-economic progress within the Malay/Muslim community, uncertainties remain, including a growing Islamic identity, the rise of Islamic fundamentalism in the region, and widening income disparities. This collection of essays by young Malay/Muslims offers a refreshing, sometimes provocative perspective on views shaping the local community. The essays—often self-critical yet constructive—reflect the mindsets of young members of a minority in a heterogeneous society. They explore topics such as the impact of Islamic extremism and radicalism, the role of the Internet, environmental influences on Islamic thought and practice, the current state of Muslim women’s activism, the need for inter-racial dialogue, the emphasis on education and scientific understanding, and the future role of Malay/Muslim youth activism in Singapore. For community leaders and institutions, it provides insights into the aspirations of young Malay Muslims and how they contribute to society. For non-Muslim or non-Malay readers, it offers broader implications beyond the Malay/Muslim community.
