GOVT-ENCOURAGED EXTREMISM: Non-Muslims have no right to question implementation of HUDUD - Isma

GOVT-ENCOURAGED EXTREMISM: Non-Muslims have no right to question implementation of HUDUD - Isma
Non-Muslims have no right to question the right of Muslims to implement shariah laws in the country, said non-governmental organisation Ikatan Muslimin Malaysia (Isma).
Its president Ustaz Abdullah Zaik Abd Rahman (pic) said Malaysia has been a sovereign land for Islam and the Malay race since ages ago.
"Non-Muslims have their right to politics so they can speak up for the interest of their respective races.
"But there is a limit to that," he said in a statement posted on the Isma website today.
Abdullah was responding to the stand of non-Muslims in Kelantan who are opposing the implementation of hudud in the PAS-governed state.
He said non-Muslims should not be so greedy to the point that they want to interfere with the exclusive rights and interests of the Malays and Bumiputera, who are the original inhabitants of the country.
He said there is a price for the citizenship given to non-Muslims.
The price is acknowledging the sovereignty of Islam, the Malays and to give their loyalty to the King and the Federal Constitution.
Yesterday, Bukit Gelugor MP Karpal Singh criticised the Kelantan government for its plan to table a bill in Parliament to implement hudud in the state.
Karpal said the Islamic law is not suitable for the present time and age and argued that the passing of the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Court Enactment II in the Kelantan state assembly in 1993 was unconstitutional in the first place.
He said the state assembly has no jurisdiction to pass the enactment and the Parliament cannot enforce an unconstitutional enactment passed by a state assembly.
"Hudud has very serious implications and consequences. Parliament will not, and cannot, pass laws of this category,” he said in a statement.
He also reiterated the DAP's stand against hudud, stressing that the party has made it clear time and again that its stand cannot be subjected to any compromise.
“It is fundamental to the party’s existence. The passing of such a law will not be in the national interest,” said the veteran MP and lawyer.
Karpal, who was formerly DAP national chairman, was reacting to Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Ahmad Yaakob’s statement on Wednesday that the state will table a private member’s bill on the matter in Parliament later this year.
The state enactment provides for the implementation of hudud for crimes like theft, fornication, adultery and alcohol consumption.
The move by Kelantan is also objected by MCA with its publicity chief Datuk Chai Kim Sen reportedly taking the DAP to task for this latest development in the hudud issue.
He said all 38 DAP MPs must be held accountable as the party had defended PAS last year by claiming that the Islamic party has become more liberal and will respect the rights of non-Muslims.
Chai said this had caused many non-Muslim voters to throw their support behind PAS in last year's general election.
He said it was clear that PAS has never given up its intention to implement hudud and is still as conservative as before. -news.malaysia.msn.com
