It is surprising to see that there are some within the Pakatan Rakyat who are willing to 'sacrifice' their principles to hold talks towards a so called Unity Government. What are their purpose of mooting such idea? If they say it is for the sake of Islam then they are acting like green and immature politicians. The current ruling coalition has done little so far to improve what more strengthening the position of Islam.
Islam is a way of life and unlike other faiths therefore in encompasses everything that we believe and doing. Unfortunately, looking at how some leaders and their followers as well as their family members they seem to believe and hence practise separation between religion and state just like those in the West. It is true that their religions are their concern but remember our religion is therefore our concern. Everyone who has proclaim that he or she is a Muslim therefore must accept Islam holistically and not piece by piece.
Though some view PAS as being a rigid regime but what they are doing and propagating are merely to defend the sanctity of the faith from being liberalised by some who view Islam as very narrow and limited in its practices and approaches to life. SIS for instance has taken too much liberal a stand in their endeavour for equality. To them, equality is to be taken literally, Man and woman are equal in every aspect of life. If a man is allowed or is able to do something therefore the opposite gender should also be accorded the same. This is very much like the west where everyone is equal at least in terms of gender. They seem to forget that man and woman are build up differently with different strength and weaknesses. They claim to believe in the traditions of the Prophet SAW but they are selective in taking his ahadith.
The ruling coalition seems to favour this so called Islamic NGO as among themselves they are those who align themselves to what the NGO believe in. Therefore it is not surprising that such NGO are given special treatment by appointing some of its members to important post. Admittedly, they are selected based on their merit but since what they practice and propagate pose danger to the belief of the Muslims, the government should tread carefully on the issue.
Banning them outright should never be done but the government who proclaims that this nation is an Islamic state should therefore take into consideration the stand of the NGO carefully to safeguard the sanctity of Islam.
