Abstract
Abstrak: Kemasukan Islam ke Sarawak dipercayai bermula sejak negeri ini diperintah oleh Kesultanan Brunei lagi namun kerancakan aktiviti Islam makin perlahan apabila Regim Brooke mula memerintah Sarawak. Usaha untuk mengembangkan ajaran Islam di Sarawak diteruskan oleh ulama silam Sarawak pada ketika itu. Sungguhpun begitu, masih terdapat masyarakat Islam kini yang tidak mengenali golongan ulama ini dan peranan besar mereka dalam perkembangan Islam di Sarawak. Justeru, kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti persepsi masyarakat Islam Sarawak tentang peranan ulama silam terhadap perkembangan Islam. Kajian ini dijalankan di bahagian Bintulu, Sarawak dengan menggunakan metod soal selidik yang dijalankan terhadap 468 orang responden. Data kajian ini dianalisis menggunakan perisian SPSS dan dihuraikan dalam bentuk statistik mudah iaitu kekerapan dan peratusan. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa persepsi masyarakat Islam di bahagian Bintulu Sarawak terhadap peranan Ulama silam adalah pada tahap sederhana.

Abstract: The advent of Islam to Sarawak started since the state was ruled by the Sultanate of Brunei but the intensity of Islamic activities was slowed down when the Brooke Regime began to rule Sarawak. Efforts to develop the teaching of Islam in Sarawak were continued by the prominent Muslim scholars of Sarawak at that time. Despite that, there are Muslims today who do not know these prominent Muslim scholars and their major role in the development of Islam in Sarawak. Thus, this study was carried out to identify the perception of the Sarawak Muslim community about the role of previous prominent Muslim scholars on the development of Islam. This study was conducted in Bintulu, Sarawak using a questionnaire with involvement of 468 respondents. The data were analyzed using SPSS software and described in the form of simple statistics, namely frequency and percentage. The results of the study found that the perception of the Muslim community in Bintulu Sarawak on the role of previous prominent Muslim Scholars (Ulama) is at a moderate level.
