| Summary: | This study was conducted to identify the critical factors that cause conflicts and division
among the Muslim community in Malaysia. As the disputes among Muslims in Malaysia
are acknowledged by religious scholars and national leaders to become more serious in
recently, a formula for forming a more united and harmonious generation in diversity
needs to be devised. Thus, the identification of the root cause of the problem and conflict
mechanism can lead to religious harmony in society. This study tries to answer the
question of why the phenomenon of religious conflict is formed in the Muslim community
in Malaysia. This study uses a qualitative approach through a thematic analysis of
transcripts from in-depth interviews. The study also conducts a systematic review of
articles related to religious conflict from a social psychology perspective to support the
argument. The result of the study is a model of the mechanism of religious conflict that
uses a system model as the framework. Its impact on long-term national development is
highly relevant as stated in Malaysia’s Vision for Shared Prosperity 2030. |
