總結:Kuala Lumpur which is famously known as the capital city of Malaysia is the hub for Malaysians who come from various ethnic groups and religions. This scenario has continued for more than six decades. However, research conducted to study the views of religious practitioners towards the related religions is still lacking despite the fact that the residents have coexisted together. Therefore, the aim of this research project is to compare and analyze the views related to the religious teachings of Muslims and Buddhists in Kuala Lumpur. In this study, library research and field work were the primary methods used to further investigate this issue. Hence, the nature of this research is qualitative, which mainly relies on in-depth interviews conducted among Muslims and Buddhists in Kuala Lumpur as the key method of data collection. In this study, a total of five Buddhist practitioners and five Muslim practitioners who reside in Kuala Lumpur were selected for the interview. The interview questions are semi-structured, in which the respondents were identified based on their affiliation with the religious institution involved. Furthermore, a total of seven religious issues were identified pertaining to Islam and Buddhism for the purpose of guiding the interview. On top of that, several questions were also asked regarding the source of information related to the religious issues. The findings of this study reveal that some of the respondents failed to communicate their understanding of other religions despite living in the same world. However, there were some respondents who demonstrated quite a clear idea about other religious teachings. Finally, it can generally be concluded that the Buddhist respondents possess more ideas about the teaching of Islam in comparison to the Muslims regarding their views of the teaching of Buddhism.
