 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Islam - Organization
Islam - Religious authority.
There is no official authority who decides whether a person is accepted into, or dismissed from, the community of believers, known as the Ummah ("family" or "nation"). Islam is open to all, regardless of race, age, gender, or previous beliefs. It is enough to believe in the central beliefs of Islam. This is formally done by reciting the shahada, which should be made sincerely from the heart, the statement of belief of Islam, without which a person cannot be classed a Mus ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Islam - HistoryIslamic history begins in Arabia in the 7th century with the emergence of the prophet Muhammad. Within a century of his death, an Islamic state stretched from the Atlantic ocean in the west to central Asia in the east, which, however, was soon torn by civil wars (fitnas). After this, there would always be rival dynasties claiming the caliphate, or leadership of the Muslim world, and many Islamic states or empires offering only token obedience to an increasingly powerless caliph.
Nonetheless, the later empires of the Abbasid caliphs an ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia - ApostasyApostasy (αποστασις, in classical Greek a defection or revolt from a military commander, from απο, apo, "away, apart", στασις, stasis, "standing") is a term generally employed to describe the formal renunciation of one's religion, especially if the motive is deemed unworthy. In a technical sense, as used by sociologists without the sometimes pejorative connotations of the word, the term refers to renunciation and criticism of or opposition to one's former religion. One who commits apostasy is an ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Islam in Malaysia - Roles of Islam in Malay and Malaysian CultureIslam is central to and dominant in Malay culture. A significant number of words in the Malay vocabulary can trace their origins to Arabic which is the chosen language of Islam. This is, however, not exclusive and words from other cultures such as Portuguese, Chinese, English and French can also be found in the Malay language. Islam is so ingrained in Malay life that Islamic rituals are practised as Malay culture. Albeit not an official position or factually correct, Muslim and Malays are interchangeble in many daily contexts.

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Islam in Malaysia - Islam HadhariThe term "Islam Hadhari" or progressive Islam has been introduced by the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to emphasize the central role of knowledge in Islam. Hard work, honesty, good administration and efficiency are equally valued. It also appeals to Muslims to be "inclusive", tolerant and outward-looking. [3]
Islam Hadhari aims to achieve ten main principles:
Faith and piety in Allah
A just and trustworthy government
A free and independent People
Mastery of knowled ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - Islam in Malaysia - Law and politicsAs defined by the constitution of Malaysia [2], Malays ought to be Muslims or else they are not legally Malay, regardless of their ethnic heritage. Consequently, apostate Malays will have to forfeit all their constitutional privileges, including their Bumiputra status, which entitles them to affirmative action policies in university admissions, and discounts on purchases of vehicles or real estate.
Parallel to the civil courts, there are Sharia courts which conduct legal matters related to religious (Islam) and family (Muslim) issues. Legal issues like Muslim divorce and Muslim apostacy are conducted ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - History of Islam - IntroductionLike most world religions, Islam's historical development has had a clear impact on the political, economic, and military history of areas inside and outside what are considered its primary geographic zones of reach (see Islamic world). As with Christendom, the concept of an Islamic world may be more or less useful in looking at different periods of history. An important strain in Islamic culture encourages identification with a quasi-political community of believers or ummah, and this component is reflected in the behavior of a number of actors in history. The history of Islam as a religion is closely rela ...

 |  |  | Islam - Notes: Encyclopedia II - History of Islam - The decline of political unityThe political unity of Islam began to disintegrate. The emirates, still recognizing the theoretical leadership of the caliphs, drifted into independence, and a brief revival of control was ended with the establishment of two rival caliphates: the Fatimids in north Africa, and the Umayyad's Caliphate of Cordoba in Spain (the emirs there being descended from an escaped member of that family). Eventually the Abbasids ruled as puppets for the Buwayhid emirs.
A series of new invasions swept over the Islamic world. First, the newly converte ...
