Islam, Knowledge and Other Affairs
Dr. Mahathir was considered to be one of Asia’s most influential leaders. During his term as the fourth prime minister of Malaysia, he was widely reckoned as the architect and strategist of modern Malaysia’s phenomenal growth over the last decade of the 20th century. He is also the initiator of Malaysia’s Vision 2020 and the Multimedia Super Corridor/ MSC.
In this compilation of his speeches delivered throughout 2004, he again reminds Third World nations on the perils of unbridled globalization, which he considered as another tool of the First World to continue dominating the global economy and trade.
He fears Islam becoming a religion of rituals and urges Muslim to cast off their preoccupation with ritualistic Islam and urges that it is this very preoccupation with inward interpretation of religion and the refusal to pursue excellence in other sciences and branches of knowledge which causes Muslim to lag behind. He also emphasized the fact that Islam attained the pinnacle of its glory when Muslim people prepared to pursue the sciences and knowledge outside the confines of religious studies and education.
With this collection of speeches, the former prime minister of Malaysia expresses his thoughts and argues his points with clarity and intelligence.
