During his time as a lieutenant in the army he taught himself Malay and Islam culture. A year later he returned to London and converted to Islam in a London Mosque.Amin’s interest in Malay language and literature drove him to study these topics at the University of London. In 1970, he completed his doctorate dissertation in Malay literature. He then became a lecturer and a professor at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (1970–1977). Afterwards, he was an advisor for graduate and postgraduate programs, Chairman of the Department of South and Southeast Asian Studies (1986–1991) and a member of the Executive Committee of the Centre for Southeast Asia Studies (1991–1998) at the University of California, Berkeley, US, until he retired and became an emeritus professor in 1998.Amin lived in Cibeureum, near Cipayung, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia.
