Description
Summary:Pusat Da'wah Islamiah is the sole Islamic propagation center in Brunei responsible for spreading the teaching Islam to the people. Pusat Da'wah is also responsible in overseeing the welfare of those who converted to Islam by providing assistance and guidance. It is the focus of the study to examine the learning sessions used by Muslim converts in Pusat Da'wah Islamiah in Brunei, which begin after embracing Islam. The modules used are contained in four main learning schemes which are currently conducted at Pusat Da'wah. Each of these schemes has its own set of modules selected by Pusat Da'wah that is deemed as important and necessary for the learning of the new converts. The study uses critical analysis in order to know the sufficiency of these modules in giving the necessary knowledge and guidance to the new converts. The study has identified that most of the current modules used by Pusat Da'wah have benefitted the converts greatly by giving them knowledge and guidance to lead their lives as Muslims. The Islamic educational background of more than half of the converts before embracing Islam also aided greatly in making their learning easier. However, several shortcomings were also apparent in some of the modules and in the way the learning was conducted. The study is also the first that focuses on the learning modules for the Muslim converts in Brunei Darussalam.
