Asri: Rather go secular if politics exploits religion


Former Perlis Mufti Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin pronounced a concept of a secular state was improved if sacrament was going to be exploited for domestic gains.

"Politics as well as sacrament should combine because sacrament guides politics. But when sacrament becomes a domestic tool, then I'm some-more peaceful (to accept) a secular state.

"I prefer a nation which separates sacrament as well as governing body because if sacrament is being exploited for governing body then at slightest a sacrament is protected as well as usually politicians face flak.

"When people do wrong as well as try to clear their actions in a name of Allah, then it's most appropriate to just apart them," he told an Islamic Jurisprudence gathering in Shah Alam yesterday.

Mohd Asri pronounced which religious men "look bad" when they attempt to have use of sacrament as a domestic tool.

He adds if states arbitrarily have use of God's name, it would in a future have God crop up cruel.

"It looks as if (God) accepts wrongdoings. This is because we must be careful with religious fatwas," he said.

'Umno's aged kafir argument'
In a apart matter, Mohd Asri additionally criticised "certain Umno leaders" have been regulating what he claims as 1980s PAS arguments concerning Muslim support for non-Muslim possibilities in a ubiquitous election.

He forked out which there were still Umno leaders who contend which Muslims cannot opinion for non-Muslims even though PAS has prolonged deserted such a mentality.

"This is a problem for Umno. They try to be some-more Islamist than PAS by regulating PAS' 1980s arguments. (Muslims) cannot opinion or mix with kafirs (non-believers! ).

"I have listened this evidence given we was in first school. Even PAS does not contend such things anymore, though Umno is observant which (Muslims) cannot opinion for non-Muslims.

"I support conjunction side, though if we contend this is loyal for alternative people though not loyal for yourself, which is odd," he pronounced in reference to Umno's non-Muslim partners in BN.

Asri urged a stop to such practices as well as pronounced people should instead opinion for possibilities which can bring about good for a community.

Demostrations permitted

Commenting on demonstrations opposite a government, Asri pronounced this was permitted in Islam though subjected to a couple of rules.

"That is because we suggest which a supervision should concede people to gather, give them water as well as bread. Everyone will be happy.

"What is a problem? Why a need to fire (tear gas)? It will usually invite new problems unless a protesters act violently," he said.
