This book reminds us, <strong>and</strong> guides us of that process, in the<br />

past, <strong>and</strong> it will continue to guide <strong>and</strong> inspire our generations<br />

in the future, like many other books of Tan Sri Prof. al-Attas.<br />

At the global level, this book reignites the illuminating<br />

knowledge of Muslims in this region of their veritable history,<br />

one that should not be construed by spurious thinking due to<br />

errors <strong>and</strong> fallacies in chronological frameworks by<br />

European historians, who write concerning Islam in this<br />

region. Tan Sri Prof. al-Attas has thus drawn the intellectual<br />

charts, of the global Islamization process, for the Malay<br />

Archipelago.<br />

<strong>UTM</strong> is indeed privileged, to have been given this<br />

opportunity, to publish a book that brings order, logical<br />

thought, <strong>and</strong> scientific analytical reasoning in the proper<br />

Islamic framework, in analyzing <strong>and</strong> interpreting our history.<br />

To further make the launch of this seminal book more<br />

meaningful, CASIS is holding a special seminar later this<br />

afternoon following the Friday Prayers. Everyone is most<br />

welcome to attend free of charge, in the spirit of Eidul Fitri.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
