The Islamic creed is more than emotions because it involves certain confidence of reward and punishment in the hereafter. It is also becoming the backbone of Islam.

Allah SWT telah melarang manusia dari melakukan sebarang ubahsuai terhadap ciptaan-Nya melainkan dalam beberapa keadaan seperti tujuan rawatan dan mengembalikan fungsi anggota badan kepada keadaan normal. Perkembangan teknologi perubatan, khususnya dalam bidang kosmetik telah memungkinkan manusia melakukan taghyir pada tubuh badan mereka. Tujuan di sebalik rawatan ini mungkin berbeza antara pesakit.

In this article, we attempt to elaborate the elements in various form of changes, whether temporal, spatial, conditional, individual, or custom from Malaysia and Singapore contexts by using comparative approach. The contexts cover economy, religious composition, position of Muslims in politics and position of Islam in the constitution of both countries.
