THE NIKRAINA-IRSHADMANJI BOOK CASE: STOP THIS PERSECUTION!
Malaysia is in a universe news again, as well as all for a wrong reasons!
IrshadManji's book "Allah, Liberty as well as Love".
In a past 12 hours, we have received numerous calls as well as emails from my contacts amongst a general handle services of a universe asking about a box of a Malay/Muslim girl who functions in Borders Bookstore as well as was charged in a SyariahCourt yesterday for allegedly offered IrshadManji's book "Allah, Liberty as well as Love".
To be frank, we was a bit bustling as well as did not closely follow which inform until we was alerted by these calls. To be additionally frank, we have nonetheless to review IrshadManji's book, though we will certainly review her books now!
That is what a JabatanAgamaIslam WilayahPersekutuan(JAWI) has done. JAWIhas supposing publicity to IrshadManjiand her books. JAWIis obliged for making IrshadManjipopular as a Malaysian household name. JAWIhas drawn general attention to how fanatic a government of PM Najibis. As a sire stops with PM Najib, he has to bear responsibility for smearing Malaysia, Malays as well as Muslims in a general community. It is a fact which JAWI is a department of a PM's Department.
I then beheld a informed name in a news reports. The name RosliDahlanwas settled as counsel defending this poor Malay girl, NikRaina NikAziz, in a SyariahCourt who is facing harm by a all powerfulJAWIof a PM's Department. Readers will recall which in a past 3 years we have created extensively about Lawyer RosliDahlan. we wrote about how AG GaniPatailtried to fall short this male regulating a MACCjust because he defended a former Directo! r CCID, DatoRamliYusuff, who unclosed former IGP Musa Hassan's involvement with a crime associate of GohCheng Poh@ TengkuGoh. About how Minister NazriAzizwanted Roslito be sacked from acting for MAS in a MAS v TajudinRamlisaga because UMNO longed for which box closed.
I was surprised, elated as well as nonetheless endangered about Rosli'sinvolvement in this case. we did not know which Rosliis additionally a SyarieLawyer. He is uninformed from only being irreproachable of a 5-years harm by AG GaniPatailand a MACCand right away he is endangered in this box involving JAWI as well as a powerful Ministry of Home Affairs.
Isn't Rosliafraid which his alma mater, a International Islamic University ("IIU"), would reject him? After all, he was a 1st collection of IIUgraduates as well as nonetheless he sees it fit to urge Borders in this controversial book case? For Rosli's sake, we only longed for him to stay out of trouble.
So, we called Roslito ask him. He was formidable to get. When we finally got through, a answer he gave was exactly what we should have expected. Roslisaid politely though make a difference of factly "Din, you know we can't talk about a cases which we handle. If you want to know what a box is about, we hold it is already reported by a press."
From some contributor friends who were in justice yesterday, we was told which JAWIsent a high powered6-men charge group led by a SyariahChief Prosecutor, Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Deris, as well as they took up all a counsel's seats at a SyariahBar table. we consternation if which was another danger tactic to dismay Rosliand Nik Raina.
So for a benefit of my readers, we reproduce a inform below as well as a response from Borders. Read also: this.
Having review as well as spoken quickly to Rosli, we right away assimilate because he is rebuilt to wade in to uneasy waters again. It is clear to me which as far as R! osliis c oncerned, a NikRaina's box is a obvious box of corruption in a doing of a law; of stupidity as well as disaster by those in energy to assimilate how a law operates (in a interplay between a Printing Presses Act as well as a SyariahCriminal Offences Act); of hardship by a religious department underneath a PM's Office which, vested with powers, exercises it in a senseless manner resulting in abuse as well as injustice; of irresponsible politicians (the two Ministers) who did not have a domestic will nor moral courage to do a right thing in sequence to correct an misapplication from occurring for fright of a domestic price to their popular image to a sold ethnic/religious group; of disaster by this government to prepare the own departmental actions; as well as ultimately, of a undermining as well as destruction of a Malay/Muslim rights as well as image by UMNO who declared themselves as a defenders of such rights, as a result a charge of a down ship Malay/Muslim staff.
I additionally fright which there will be far reachingimplications. For expediency, bookstores, restaurants, airlines as well as for which make a difference any consumer-based commercial operation in Malaysia would be wavering to occupy Muslims only to equivocate being caught in this sort of situation. JAWI'sactions against NikRaina are most appropriate described by a Malay proverb: "Tak dapattanduktelingadipulas" as well as "Kerananilasetitikrosaksususebelanga".
PM Najibmust have a moral courage to do a right thing. Stop this nonsensical harm of Nik Raina!
