Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has urged Muslims to master emerging fields such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing and digitalisation while maintaining their faith, ethics and Islamic values. Speaking in a Facebook post, Anwar emphasized that reform of the Muslim community should encompass knowledge pursuit, character building and fulfilling responsibilities.

He warned that neglecting new fields of knowledge would lead Muslims to fall behind. However, Anwar stressed that the use of new technologies should remain rooted in Islamic values. He also highlighted the importance of Islamic outreach driven by compassion and mercy, rather than intellectual superiority. Anwar's speech came during the National Quran Recitation and Memorisation Ceremony in Kuala Lumpur, where he expressed appreciation to the judges and participants.
