Abstract
This thesis attempted to investigate religious liberalism in Malaysia, specifically
from the perspective of ‘aqidah Islam (Islamic belief). It aims to observe the position
of liberalism as well as to explain to the society about Islam. In accomplishing this
research, qualitative data collection was employed, in which document analysis and
interviews with those who support religious liberalism were conducted. The data
gained then arranged and analysed with descriptive and historical method. The main
focus of the research was the issue of ‘aqidah (belief).
The research finds that there exists the movement of religious liberalism in
the country. It progresses by disseminating transformation in religion, which begins
with new interpretations of religious texts. Religious liberalisms undergo different
levels of distortion; some are extremely dangerous while some others are mildly
dangerous. The extremely dangerous distortion includes the rejection of the Prophet
Muhammad as the messenger of Allah. Besides, the research also discovers that
Islam has a permanent identity where not all aspects in Islam change according to
time. Islam plays the role of a teacher that the society is to obey the religion and not
in the other way round. Every single field has its experts and all the transformations
in the religion of Islam should be handled by its experts.
Islam brings people to safety. Therefore, those who seek for safety are always
encouraged to embrace Islam although there is no compulsion for them to act so. It is
important to note that Islam is a religion of truth and all human beings are the
servants of Allah s.w.t. and are to obey to the teachings of the Prophet.
