After sultan’s call, PAS urges Muslims to uphold ban
PETALING JAYA: Muslims in Selangor were again reminded by PAS against visiting other houses of worship, hours after the sultan of Selangor had said there was nothing wrong in Muslims attending a funeral or wake at a church.
The PAS statement, by its Selangor leader Ahmad Yunus Hairi, said Muslims should abide by a directive restricting them from visiting other houses of worship to learn more about other faiths.
Yunus said it was important to preserve tolerance and the mutual respect between the different communities. He said PAS would work to ensure nobody threatens Malaysia’s harmony.
Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, in a media interview published this morning, said while Muslims can attend ceremonies such as funerals or wakes at non-Muslim houses of worship, they should remain observers and not take part in any rituals.
He said the Selangor religious council’s directive against visits to learn about other faiths was “correct and clear”.
The sultan said the council was merely protecting the faith of Muslims by highlighting programmes in Selangor that “persuade Muslims to be inclined towards or to be interested in other religions”.
Ahmad said the sultan’s call was a reminder to the people that it is illegal to carry out proselytisation of Muslims and was made to prevent any confusion and misunderstanding.
