GOMBAK: The way forward for the Muslim education world is not to focus just on the legalistic aspect of Islam but to continuously question accepted norms in order to make progressive change, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He also said Muslims of today must study the history of Muslims in the early days to find out how Rulers such as Saladin engaged with non-Muslim kingdoms to keep the peace and concentrate on the people's issues.
