The Fourier transform, known in classical analysis, and generalized in abstract harmonic analysis, can also be considered in the theory of locally compact quantum groups. In this note, I discuss some aspects of this more general Fourier transform. In order to avoid technical difficulties, typical for the analytical approach, I will restrict to the algebraic quantum groups. Roughly speaking, these are the locally compact quantum groups that can be treated with purely algebraic methods (in the framework of multiplier Hopf algebras). I will illustrate various notions and results using not only classical Fourier theory on the circle group $\Bbb T$, but also on the additive group $\Bbb Q_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. It should be observed however that these cases are still too simple to illustrate the full power of the more general theory.
