Most Malaysian Muslims of Chinese descent today are converts to Islam. They are a legacy of their own, having no ancestral links to any Islamic roots in China. Malaysian Chinese who come to Islam are from all kinds of backgrounds. Some received their education in Chinese, some in Malay, and some in English.
