JAIS

Gauging Anwar’s promises for Selangor

Ampersand by KW Mak | February 24, 2014 4 Comments

How will we know whether a Selangor PR government under Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will be more effective than under Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim’s current administration? And what lessons can we be aware of with regards to how the state is currently being run?

Understanding state government SOPs

Ampersand by KW Mak | January 20, 2014 14 Comments

Was the MBPJ inspection of the Bible Society of Malaysia’s premises, right after they had been illegally raided by Jais, justifiable? And what are the larger issues surrouding both the Jais raid and the council’s action?

“Allah”: The PR’s failure

Shape of a Pocket by Jacqueline Ann Surin | January 13, 2014 88 Comments

IT’S not hard at all to be distressed by the BN federal government over the way the “Allah” issue has developed. That said, following the Jais raid on the Bible Society of Malaysia, it is equally troubling to see the PR’s failure in demonstrating it will and can uphold non-Muslims’ constitutional rights.

Nasihat tentang kalimah yang mengelirukan

Secubit Garam oleh Shanon Shah | January 13, 2014 6 Comments

Siapa yang mencemarkan imej Islam?

Asam Pedas oleh Norhayati Kaprawi | January 6, 2014 36 Comments

Benarkah orang-orang dan perayaan bukan Islam menggugat Islam di Malaysia? Dan apakah patut pemimpin Islam melakukan kekerasan dan diskriminasi terhadap orang bukan Islam sepertimana yang dilakukan oleh Jais terhadap Persatuan Bible Malaysia minggu lalu?

Agamawan Islam jangan cakap tak serupa bikin

Oleh Norhayati Kaprawi | August 5, 2013 27 Comments

BILA berhadapan dengan masalah di dalam masyarakat, mengapa segala teori, rhetorik dan ajaran Islam semuanya seperti dicampak ke laut? Dari menambah mengapi-apikan orang Islam, agamawan sepatutnya meminta umat Islam bertenang dan menghadapi konflik dengan berhemah dan bijaksana. Cara sebegitulah yang akan membuatkan Islam lebih dihormati.

Borders vs. Jawi: How it affects us

Holding Court by Ding Jo-Ann | April 8, 2013 5 Comments

The High Court recently held that Jawi’s actions in raiding Borders and seizing copies of an Irshad Manji book were illegal. The bookstore’s day in court reminds us how it falls on citizens to know the law and their rights to prevent state authorities from abusing power.

What are the Islamic authorities up to?

Holding Court by Ding Jo-Ann | August 13, 2012 13 Comments

CAN Islamic authorities raid churches and bookstores even though they are non-Muslim entities and summon non-Muslims for questioning? Does the syariah court have jurisdiction the moment Islam or a Muslim is involved? Ding Jo-Ann examines the constitutional issues.

The perils of being Muslim in Malaysia

Shape of a Pocket by Jacqueline Ann Surin | July 2, 2012 119 Comments

Muslims constitute the majority of the Malaysian population and the country’s top leadership. Still, just how safe is it to be a Muslim in Malaysia? And can Muslims trust that their rights will be protected and upheld by a public administration that increasingly says it wants to uphold Islamic values and teachings?

Religious raids: Can they or can’t they?

By Ding Jo-Ann | June 11, 2012 7 Comments

CAN religious authorities like Jawi and Jais raid companies, confiscate books and detain Muslims for publishing and selling a book that is deemed a threat to Muslims in Malaysia? What laws empower religious state authorities to act in the way they have over Irshad Manji’s book? And what laws protect citizens and companies from arbitrary action?
