This paper will try to shed Islamic influences on a few works that have been wrote by Malay scholars in old Malay manuscripts. Within the context of this study, qualitative methodology has been applied to reveal a diverse array of topics by gathering data from Malay manuscripts, books, paper works and website. As a result, Islam play a huge role and contribute a lot of changes in Malay manuscript’s writing by introducing a script and persuading intellectual development especially in producing various genres of Malay literature such as religion, hikayat (legends) history, law and Malay traditional medicine.
