Malaysiakini - Mufti raps infidel label after 'bury Azizah in Chinese cemetery' jab (extracts):
Penang mufti Wan Salim Wan Mohd Noor has criticised the act of labelling fellow Muslims who disagree with PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang's Private Member's Bill as infidels.
This was after Padang Serai PAS chief Shaharuddin Ibrahim said in a sermon that Opposition Leader Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail would have to be buried in a non-Muslim cemetery if she did not support the amendment to the Syariah Courts (Criminal Jurisdiction) Act 1965, or Act 355.
"I am saddened there are certain religious leaders in the country who conveniently label other Muslims as infidels simply because of disagreements over the Private Member's Bill to strengthen the syariah court,"
In the statement, disseminated by Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (Abim), Wan Salim said while the matter was important, the proposed amendment has yet to be finalised and would only be tabled in Parliament by Hadi, who is also Marang MP, at the October sitting.
He said Parliament should be allowed to discuss the matter and formulate a law that is just to all citizens.
"We should not force any MP to accept the Act 355 amendment bill by all means including threats that their faith would be affected.
"It is compulsory for Muslims to accept Allah's laws, which are sacred, but the Act 355 amendment bill is not Allah's law."Wan Salim said in a statement today.

Who should we believe, the fucking-on-top-of-the camel's-back ulama who cowardly blamed a woman Raja Sherina for his seditious misdeed when the chips were down (but promoted to a Tan Sri) or a brave Penangite, wakakaka?
My visitor Hasan has been correct when he alluded to half a million fatwas in the Islamic world of which only a handful have been worthy. We can include that fuck-on-top-of-camel lover as another bullshitter.
