Aljunied explores the ideas of Haji Abdullah Malik Abdul Karim Amrullah (1908-81), commonly known as "Hamka," who was one of the leading figures of the Islamic reformist movements in Southeast Asia in the twentieth century. Other than being the most influential Muslim scholar and preacher in Indonesia, Hamka was the first of few Southeast Asian scholars to receive an honorary doctorate from the prestigious Al-Azhar University. He was the author of more than a hundred popular and scholarly books covering a wide range of topics, including history, theology, philosophy, Islamic jurisprudence, and spirituality. All written in the Malay language, Hanika's books are still widely read by Muslims across Southeast Asia today and are used as sources of references in tertiary institutions in the region and beyond. Among the issues that concerned Hamka throughout his prodigious scholarly career was the marginalization of reason and rationality in Southeast Asian Muslim thought.
