Abstract

The paper presents a comparative study between the
existing cyber laws in Malaysia and the Islamic perspective
concerning four major issues in cyber space particularly
concerning i. privacy, ii. trust, iii. theft and iv. contract.The study
would use comparative approach from the main source of
Islamic Shariah - Quran and Sunnah (tradition of the prophet
s.aw.) and a thorough study of the existing law pertaining to
cyber crime such as Communication and Multimedia Act 1998
and Computer Crime Act. The study prevails that the above
concerns principally seems to be consistent with Islamic view.
However more extensive study must be carried out when it comes
to implementation of these issues in e-commerce. With more than
one billion Muslim population, the research will serve as a
baseline for establishing an alternative view from Islamic
perspective and cyber laws that taken into account approach
based on Shariah to meet new challenges for Muslim Ummah in
cyberspace.
