Abstract
Ucapan ini mengenai agama dan kebudayaan dalam masyarakat kosmopolitan. Penyampai mentakrifkan tiga hal yang yang berkaitan dengan topik ini iaitu; agama, kebudayaan dan masyarakat kosmopolitan. Penyampai juga membincangkan tentang masyarakat warga negara Singapura yang tidak dapat dianggap masyarakat kosmopolitan kerana dalm banyak hal masyarakat itu terikat oleh satu kebangsaan. Maka penyampai cuma melihat dari sudut kelompok Melayu sahaja. Kesimpulannya adalah amalan kebudayaan tidak ditegah oleh agama selagi amalan itu tidak bertentangan dengan ajaran agama.
