The Islamic community is presently confronted by several concerns pertaining to matters of faith and beliefs. The Malaysian government is increasingly concerned about various issues, including deviant teachings, apostasy, demands for human rights from specific groups and religious extremism. These can potentially lead towards the disruption of national security and the sanctity of the Islamic religion. As a result, the government is taking measures to curb and contain the development of these issues. This article investigates three distinct categories of behaviours that present substantial risks to the faith of the Muslim community. These include deviations in beliefs and ideas, issues on human rights, and the existence of extremist or radical groups that pose a threat to peace in Malaysia. Data for this study were obtained through library research and the application of content analysis involving thematic examination of issues relevant to subject matter. The study demonstrates that the current development of Islamic legislation in Malaysia is a continuous process of change aimed at upholding national security and unity through the framework of Islamic law. Moreover, there are multiple risks both domestically and internationally, encompassing concerns pertaining to the faith and beliefs of the Muslim community in Malaysia. These factors could potentially to create ambiguity and jeopardise the overall security and stability of society, particularly within the Muslim community.

Hal ini berpotensi membawa kepada tergugatnya keamanan setempat dan kesucian agama Islam. Kesannya, kerajaan telah mengambil langkah bagi membendung dan mengawal situasi ini. Kajian ini menganalisis tiga ancaman utama kepada akidah masyarakat Islam dan institusi Islam iaitu berkaitan penyelewengan akidah dan pemikiran, isu tuntutan hak asasi manusia dan akhir sekali berkaitan kewujudan golongan ekstremis atau radikal yang mengancam keamanan di Malaysia. Data untuk kajian ini diperolehi melalui kajian perpustakaan dan metode analisis kandungan telah diaplikasikan dalam kajian ini melibatkan pendekatan tematik terhadap isu-isu tersebut.

Tambahan lagi, wujud pelbagai ancaman yang timbul dari dalam dan luar negara termasuk dalam isu akidah dan pemikiran umat Islam yang boleh menimbulkan kekeliruan dan mengancam keamanan serta kestabilan masyarakat khususnya umat Islam. Selain itu, terdapat pelbagai risiko di dalam dan di luar negara, merangkumi kebimbangan yang berkaitan dengan akidah dan kepercayaan masyarakat Islam di Malaysia. Faktor-faktor ini berpotensi menimbulkan kekaburan dan menjejaskan keselamatan dan kestabilan keseluruhan masyarakat, khususnya dalam masyarakat Islam.
