The concept, which also calls for moderation and a balanced outlook in life, was first promoted in January but this was the first time the defining principles had been formulated in tenet-form.
Abdullah, who has said that Islam Hadhari, if approached honestly and sincerely, can be a guide through the rigours of time for Muslims to be progressive, has 10 principles:
* Faith and piety in Allah
* A just and trustworthy Government
* A free and independent people
* Mastery of knowledge
* Balanced and comprehensive economic development
* A good quality of life
* Protection of the rights of minority groups and women
* Cultural and moral integrity
* Safeguarding the environment
* Strong defences.”
