Malaysia ! Malaysia ! What has happened to you ?? Syariah above the civil court ??

June 25th, 2007 | Category: Malaysia, Politics, Religion

Yesterday there was a talk in Flamingo hotel in Sitiawan, Perak.
It was about religious freedom in Malaysia.
I did not attend it but my dad attended I have the booklet regarding it.

Unity threarened by continuing infringements of religious freedom.

The main case was about Lina Joy, but there are many other cases as well.
In her case, as we all know its about changing the religion in the identity card but the court has given a stupid judgement. Which court is higher ?? Federal or Syariah ??
Syariah court is for internal affairs of Muslim individuals,  such as property matters…

But in this Malaysia, it is different. Lina Joy is subject to syariah court. She can’t go any further and only can appeal to syariah court. If Lina Joy goes to syariah court, its a clear cut ending. Even if there is a good judge, the pressure on him will automatically bring stupid judgements !!

Now, my question is.. If a non-Muslim is subject to syariah court, will muslim people be subject to a Christian, Hindu or a Buddhist court ?? Will Muslim’s follow non-Muslim laws ??

WHAT THE !! It looks like syariah court is higher than civil court in this country ??

And by the way ?? What that man Samy is doing ??
Lets hear a story…

One day, Mahatma Gandhi went to see God. He asked god about how to unite all the people in India. God gave him superb ideas and Mahatma cried.
Later, Abdul Kalam went to see God. He asked of how to make the country better ?? God answered him with many superb ways too. Abdul also cried and went back.
Then, Manmohan Singh went to see God and asked God the same things. God answered him back. Manmohan also cried and went back.. These are the three top level people, one Hindu, one Muslim, and one Sikh in India who wants to serve their country with their whole heart.
Finnaly Samy Vellu went to see God and asked some questions which is not even a little bit of what the other ministers asked… Guess what ??
This time… GOD CRIED !!!
