Abstract

Islam is a preaching religion. With this awareness, many Muslims compete in conveying this good news to their friends, particularly to those who are not Muslims yet. Ulamas or Islamic scholars, as preachers and consultants on religious matters, play an important role in spreading Islam. Since the arrival of Islam in Sarawak, the function and role of Ulamas as conveyers of religion are still important. Sarawak is a state where most of its inhabitants are from various ethnic groups and religions. Until now, Islam is not the official religion of the state. A relatively large part of the state’s population is Christians and other religion other than Islam. In the spread of Islam in Sarawak, the Ulamas face various problems. Some of these problems will be discussed in this article.
