Batu Bersurat Terengganu telahpun diterima sebagai salah sebuah artifak tertua yang boleh membuktikan kehadiran Islam di Malaysia dan secara amnya juga di Asia Tenggara. Sejak penemuannya pada tahun 1887 prasasti Terengganu itu telah menarik perhatian kaum sarjana dari berbagai bidang ilmu. Betapapun demikian, dalam buku ini Prof. Emeritus Dr. Ahmat Adam mempertikaikan kajian terhadap prasasti itu yang selama ini memberikan tarikh yang salah iaitu 702 H. atau 1303 M., sedangkan tarikh yang sebenarnya ialah 708 H. atau 1308 M. Suatu penemuan baru daripada hasil kajian Prof. Ahmat Adam, yang menggunakan kaedah filologi dan analisis sejarah, ialah bahawa penggunaan sistem kalendar peribumi telahpun wujud di Terengganu pada awal abad ke-14.

This book explains how to do' research on the early Malay doctors. A detailed account of the meaning of the word Malay' is given, in due recognition of the high status accorded to Malay Civilisation in the Malay annals and Chinese chronicles. Forty-three early Malay doctors were traced over nine years in Malaya and Singapore. The techniques deployed to trace them are explained. The sources of their biographies are described, which include interviews, narratives, family accounts, newspapers, publications, and contacting their former institutions, friends and associations. Only a brief one-page biography for each doctor is included in this book. There are 30 appendices that contain tabulated information about these doctors, information about the early schools, medical institutions and hospitals at the time. This book is a resource guide on the early Malay doctors based on present research findings. More research efforts need to be channelled to find the remaining 12 early Malay doctors.

The Terengganu Stone has generally been accepted as one of the oldest archaeological artifacts for the evidence of the arrival of Islam to Malaysia, and Southeast Asia more generally. Since its discovery in 1887 the Terengganu Inscription has drawn much interest from scholars of various disciplines. Yet in this volume Emeritus Professor Dr. Ahmat Adam argues that scholarship on the Inscription has consistently misdated the stone and misrepresented its true content. Through philological and historical analysis he argues that the correct date of the Inscription is not 702 H. or 1303 A.D but 708 H. or 1308 A.D and that the Inscription also reveals the usage of a unique calendrical system in the early 14th century, alongside other clues to the nature of historical Malay society.

“...penerbitan esei-esei ini juga digerakkan oleh rasa tidak senang penulis terhadap beberapa orang yang berlagak sarjana ilmu tawarikh tetapi menulis hal-hal dongeng ciptaannya sendiri yang didakwanya sebagai sejarah, tanpa mengemukakan dalil sahih yang menjadi landasan penulisan ilmu tawarikh atau ilmu sejarah.” Dalam karya terbarunya ini, Prof. Emeritus Ahmat Adam membincangkan zaman silam Melaka dan kaitannya dengan tawarikh bangsa Melayu. Esei-esei yang terkumpul dalam buku ini adalah hasil daripada penyelidikan beliau, dan antara topik yang dibincangkan ialah penaklukan kesultanan Melayu Melaka oleh bangsa Portugis, perihal Laksamana Melaka yang bergelar Hang Tuha (bukan “Tuah”), dan warisan budaya Nusantara seperti ilmu huruf serta hubungannya dengan permasalahan dan makna huruf al-Qur’an yang sangat mempengaruhi para sarjana zaman dahulu.

Few symbols in today’s world are as laden and fraught as sharia—an Arabic-origin term referring to the straight path, the path God revealed for humans, the norms and rules guiding Muslims on that path, and Islamic law and normativity as enshrined in sacred texts or formal statute. Yet the ways in which Muslim men and women experience the myriad dimensions of sharia often go unnoticed and unpublicized. So too do recent historical changes in sharia judiciaries and contemporary strategies on the part of political and religious elites, social engineers, and brand stewards to shape, solidify, and rebrand these institutions. Sharia Transformations is an ethnographic, historical, and theoretical study of the practice and lived entailments of sharia in Malaysia, arguably the most economically successful Muslim-majority nation in the world. The book focuses on the routine everyday practices of Malaysia’s sharia courts and the changes that have occurred in the court discourses and practices in recent decades. Michael G. Peletz approaches Malaysia’s sharia judiciary as a global assemblage and addresses important issues in the humanistic and social-scientific literature concerning how Malays and other Muslims engage ethical norms and deal with law, social justice, and governance in a rapidly globalizing world.

Dunia Digital Pengajian Alam Melayu merupakan kupasan dan perbincangan mengenai pembangunan portal Pengajian Alam Melayu di Institut Alam dan Tamadun Melayu (ATMA) dan The Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies, (KITLV). ATMA telah membangunkan Portal Malaycivilization.com dan KITLV pula membangunkan Portal KITLV. Kedua-dua portal ini menyediakan akses kepada pengguna bagi mendapatkan bahan rujukan dan maklumat yang berkait dengan Pengajian Alam Melayu. Pengetahuan dan pemahaman terhadap Tamadun Melayu, Tamadun Belanda dan sejarah pembangunan intelektual di antara kedua-dua tamadun tersebut, dan Pengajian Alam Melayu telah memberikan inspirasi berguna dalam melihat proses pembangunan portal tersebut. Analisis perbandingan dilakukan melalui aspek sosiologikal dan teknikal.. Kedua-dua analisis ini juga membuka ruang yang luas dalam memahami teknik dan strategi yang digunakan oleh ATMA dan KITLV untuk membangunkan portal. Secara umumnya buku ini menyatukan kembali bidang sains dan kemanusiaan yang terpisah dan bergerak bersendirian. Kedua-dua bidang ini telah menyumbang kepada pelbagai aspek kehidupan sama ada yang dapat dilihat secara fizikal atau yang berkait dengan masyarakat. Melalui buku ini, kedua-dua bidang tersebut digunakan sebagai idea utama untuk melihat Pengajian Alam Melayu di alam siber melalui pembangunan portal. Inilah sebenarnya yang menjadi tunjang kepada penulisan buku ini. Penulis juga berhasrat untuk mengembalikan semula zaman kegemilangan falsafah tabii yang suatu ketika dahulu menjadi medium utama untuk memahami manusia dan alam sekitarnya. Tanpa disangka, inisiatif untuk mengkaji dan memahami kedua-dua portal ini berdasarkan aspek sosiologikal dan teknikal telah menghasilkan beberapa penemuan berasaskan aspek kemanusiaan, sains sosial, sains komputer dan teknologi maklumat. Penemuan ini juga dilihat sebagai suatu inisiatif permulaan untuk menghidupkan kembali asas utama kepada sains dan kemanusiaan iaitu falsafah tabii.

"Sebagai seorang ilmuan, Dr. Azhar Ibrahim menghayati isu-isu dalam Pengajian Melayu sebagai rangkaian yang kait mengait, memahami satu bidang memerlukan pengolahan bidang yang lain dalam wacana yang semakin meluas; sejarah menjurus ke tema kebebasan; orientalisme menilai kembali kesulitan dalam feudalisme; humanisme memperluaskan lagi makna dalam teks Melayu; multikulturalisme menyentuh pembinaan identiti; kekaburan akademik menyekat kefahaman masyarakat; neo-liberalisme menentukan arah pengajian seni dan sastera; idealisme diimbangi oleh perancangan dalam wacana pengajian yang baru. Dr. Azhar Ibarhim menyeru orang-orang muda supaya mengenali sejarah dan mengekalkan adab dan adat Melayu. Tema berpasangan ini yang dikupas begitu mendalam menaikkan lagi darjat Pengajian Melayu sebagai satu bidang ilmu yang sah dan berguna." Prof Dr Zakaria Ali Malaysia "Kelangkaan inteligensia Melayu Singapura yang peduli akan jatuh bangunnya bangsa Melayu Singapura, khususnya terhadap budaya yang menjurus mengenai seni sasteranya, menurut saya mula tumbuh kembali apabila kita mahu mengenal sosok peribadi Dr Azhar Ibrahim. Kegiatannya yang memunculkan pertemuan-pertemuan seperti CITA, KULIAH BUSTAN menjadi kenyataannya. Begitu pula dengan terbitnya buku Menyanggah Belenggu Keracunan Fikiran ini, mudah-mudahan akan lahir satu sosok ahli fikir yang berani mendobrak cara berfikir yang lazim membelenggu bangsa kita, insya-Allah."
