This talk takes as its starting point the edited volume Muslim Piety as Economy: Markets, Meaning and Morality in Southeast Asia (Routledge 2019). In this volume Muslim piety is explored as a form of economy, including specific forms of production, trade, regulation, consumption, entrepreneurship and science that condition – and are themselves conditioned by – Islamic values, logics and politics. With a focus on Southeast Asia as a site of significant and diverse integration of Islam and the economy – as well as the incompatibilities that can occur between the two – it reveals the production of a Muslim piety as an economy in its own right. The book considers issues such as the Qur’anic prohibition of corruption and anti-corruption reforms; the emergence of the Islamic economy under colonialism; ‘halal’ or ‘lawful’ production, trade, regulation and consumption; modesty in Islamic fashion marketing communications; and financialization, consumerism and housing. I shall use Malaysia as a case country in which the above trends are prominent: I present an overview of my current and previous work on Islam and economy in Malaysia across multiple scales from the state and the market to religious organizations and individual consumers, but also move beyond the national scale to explore global Muslim tourism, travel cultures and mobilities.
