Malaysiakini yesterday reported that Nik Aziz hopes to see a 2/3 majority secured in Parliament so that hudud can be implemented throughout the country.
More troubling, Malaysiakini’s Susan Loone quoted Nik Aziz as saying that at a “recent meeting between Pakatan Rakyat leaders in Selangor, the DAP, that fiercely opposed the law, had accepted Kelantan’s proposal to enact it within the state”.
I sent the following sms to several DAP leaders this morning :Mkini yday reported that DAP has acceded to hudud being implemented in Kelantan. True or false?
Replies came back fast and furious.
Charles Santiago : False
Hannah Yeoh : Not True.
Ronnie Liu : Not true. hudud remains as a dream for PAS and we must respect that as a fact, but it is not a shared dream of my party for our society is a multireligious one.
Tony Pua : To be polite, completely inaccurate.
Lim Guan Eng : False
Karpal Singh : Not true
Guan Eng called me a little while ago to say that he spoke at the 60th anniversary PAS meet in Kepala Batas last night, where, before a large audience, he reiterated DAP’s stand of opposing the implementation of hudud.
“There is no provision for the implementation of hudud in Pakatan’s common policy or the Buku Jingga. I repeated before the crowd what I have said previously. If hudud is implemented, I and the rest of the DAP leadership will resign our party posts”, Guan Eng said.
Guan Eng’s word is good enough for me.
DAP remains the proverbial ‘Rock of Gibraltar’ in defending our secular nation.
Yesterday, I was at the FreedomFilmFest that continues today at Wisma Bentley at the Curve. You should make the effort to catch what’s left of this event if you can.
Watched Norhayati Kaprawi’s “Aku Siapa?” that had footage of a ceramah by Nik Aziz.
I had never seen this before, and I was shocked.
I’ve located that video footage on youtube.
Watch and see for yourself. The shocker kicks in 3 minutes and 40 seconds into the video clip.

I will admit that the Tok Guru’s word was a bit offensive
But the fact remains
Covering the aurah is not a man made command
It is Allah’s command stated in the holy Quran
I have no problem with women indulging the latest fashion trend which involves some cleavage exposure and displaying their smooth and silky hair(my female relatives always in this mode every year for Raya)
But some form of moderation in fashion conduct needs to be observed
In a way, Tok Guru was right by saying that
IMO, over exposing yourself in scantily clad is like being a piece of meat waiting to be munched by a carnivore nearby
This teaching is only applicable among Muslims only
Those not of Islamic faith can dress in their undergarments in public for all I care
Now back to the whole hudud debacle
DAP and every other non Muslim figure in Pakatan objecting to hudud is understandable due to their lack of understanding on Islam
I’m sure if a majority Christian country wants to implement Canon Law, the minority Muslims will certainly reject it
Like the above command, Hudud is not man’s law, it’s Allah’s law
Who are we as Muslims to disregard it
I can live with hudud not being a joint Pakatan agenda (Buku Jingga)
But what I cannot accept is why hudud cannot be implemented on a state level in Kelantan
May I remind you that PAS has been governing Kelantan for the past 21 years, the longest opposition held administration in our country’s history
PAS has made it known to the rakyat that hudud is on their agenda since day one
The fact that the Kelantanese people of all races and religion put their faith in Tok Guru’s leadership for more than 2 decades is a clear referendum that they have no problem with hudud laws
In fact, constitutional expert Prof Aziz Bari of IIUM has stated that majority of Kelantanese including Muslims and non Muslims are OK with hudud based on a study he conducted
The way I see it, give the Kelantan state government one year in conducting a pilot study in enforcing hudud
The end results determined whether it is effective or a total failure
As a Kelantanese, I can assure the non Muslim community this
Kelantan under hudud will not be another Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan
There will no stoning of promiscuous girls
Women are free to vote and drive cars
“DAP remains the proverbial ‘Rock of Gibraltar’ in defending our secular nation.”
Now this made me chuckle a bit
Was it not a decade ago when then PM Tun Mahathir declared in Parliament that Malaysia is an ISLAMIC STATE, not secular state?
Sorry to disappoint you, Haris
Sorry, PAS
In a way, Mahathir beat you all to it

Dear Sir, I hope you understand the concerns of non-Muslims. We have seen how the NEP which was supposed to be for 20 years from 1970 to 1990 (and it was stipulated in writing) has become Never-Ending Policy today. We have seen how the Hadyai Agreement with CPM in 1989 blatantly breached and until today Chin Peng is deny entry into Malaysia. I can cite you endless cases of not only verbal promises but also written Agreements blatantly breached. The U-turns are just too many for me to even bother to remember. I trust Pas’s intentions today to confine Huded to Muslims only but I cannot trust that their intentions will remain the same in the future. We have seen enough and learn enough. In fact the article by Zarinah Anwar in the Star today puts the issue in perspectice.

But to make sense of what you say Pakatan never existed all along and never influenced BN to have done the all the wrong things, many of which they’re still doing.
In any case, it’s true that Kelantan was turned down by Federal, on their Hudud proposal, before the PR front existed.
But what puzzles me – are Karpal and Lim Guan Eng going to behave differently when PR governs, and turn into jerks, which they are not today???
That really, Karpal and Guan Eng, by your implication are hypocrites?

I do not now the Quaranic equivalent, but in the Bible one reads about certain priests who prefer the “drama” of being religious. They religiously follow the laws, perhaps even create more laws to clarify the existing laws. At the end of the day, they may not make it into or thru the “Doorway”.

Haris, in the first place this clip was recorded in 2008.
Let us look at the present political scenario now.
The recent attacks by Umno by all their available machinery through whatever means, be it racial or religious and etc etc, could only meant to cause the disintegration of PR, be it targeted on their respective leaders or component parties.
All these are possible because PR does not have a common platform with one common voice albeit their so called ‘Buku Jingga’. And without that, we get PR component leaders reacting to Umno’s ploys like loose cannons. This will continue for as long as there is no common platform to close rank on their differences in ideology.
High profile meeting on adhoc basis to discuss issue is really a joke. I already knew the outcome before that meeting. ‘Only when the 3 component parties agree’ kinda bullshit! And suddenly Anwar becomes a hero again.
The people are up to their neck with Umno’s dirty politicking and PR leader’s stupidity in reacting to them is not going to help either.
If they have nothing better to say, tell the to just shut the **** up. Or a simple statement like what I have mentioned above would cut Umno off straight away. Why the need of tit for tat among themselves before finally come out with that statement of ‘ only when the 3 component agrees’.
Trying to score publicity over Umno’s self implosion is like MCA trying to woo back the Chinese voters.
Just a bunch of political immature leaders they are.
And for you, Haris, lets not forget your ‘DNBN’ goal.

May I remind you that how someone dresses is up to them, and the males of the species will just have to behave like civilzed human beings and respect the females and that means, clean your minds up, Muslims, and not let sexual trash fester in there until you cannot control yourself and on top of it start blaming everyone else for your unlawful, odious, evil, and beastly actions. If you can’t even control that small piece of meat between your legs, how can you even think of preaching hudud to the rest of us?? Mad Hatter got it wrong … we are a secular country, not an Islamic state whatever that is supposed to be. Malaysia is a secular democracy, not a theocracy.

I don’t mean to belittle anyone here, be it Muslims or non Muslims
It is everyone right’s to dress according to their preferences
But as Muslims, covering the aurah is one of the values decreed by Allah himself via the holy Quran and hadith
Like every other religion, Islam too has good and bad followers
On one hand, we have Muslim males who are well endowed in Islamic knowledge and frequently practice what they were taught
On the other hand, we have Muslim males that with a weak faith in Islam due to lack of proper teaching and guidance
It is the latter who are more risk to succumb to their lust at the sight of the opposite gender who are revealing
It is only human for us males to be attracted to females
It’s just that some of us are more prone to sexual predatory nature due to weak grasp of religion
Sometimes, religion does not always have to come into play on how we should dress
For example, would you, Socrates or Haris allowed your daughter or sister to go out on a date with a guy you hardly know scantily clad?
I’m sure you would ask her to dress moderately not because God told you so but because it is much more ethical and to project an image that she had a healthy upbringing
I admit that I’m no ulama and not that pious as a Muslim
So maybe I have no right to preach hudud to you all
But Nik Aziz and the rest of the PAS leadership surely does
And I will reiterate what Nik Aziz what has stated many, many times
Hudud is only applicable to Muslims and does not curtail the rights of non Muslims

Not easy to change the constitution, I doubt the royalty will agree to the Hudud laws, you know what I mean.

They don’t warn tourists of this o9fficially, of course, but just ask anyone who has lived there and see what sort of reply you get.
The fact is hudud is not infallible, nor is it reversible, so where is the JUSTICE if a mistake has been made?? Sew back your shrivelled arm, mister?? Or, raise you from the dead, perhaps??

I agree with you Harris, it is not OK to rape someone just for the way he or she may appear. But the country folk are simple minded, and that is where PKR, or all the civil liberties movements are struggling…your messages are too “deep” for the country folk to “absorb”. And as long as UMNO continues to deliver their “simple” yet damaging messages, and PAS continues to “mesmerize” them with promises of a shortcut to paradise….you will struggle to change their way of thinking… I know very well, because my “in laws”…and to some degree my spouse still thinks that way despite her education in the US, and despite some 20 yrs of living in a secular metropolitan environment….they say you can take someone out of the “kampung” quite easily…but it’s much harder to take the “kampung” out of a person.

I found its funny when the comment given based on common sense not understanding. For a person to comment about hudud, they must first understand what is hudud. A person cannot talk about economic if they don’t understand economics. When the general population have been exposed and mold with secularism and western culture it have lost all its own culture, belief and traditions. That is what happen to Malaysia. I see people keep saying even a women is covered up eventually is raped means by covering up it doesn’t make any difference. This a lame and no brainer excuse, the problem is the society and the rapist live in the society. Fix the society with a system and you lessen the damage. By covering up it reduced the chances of being rape, when exposing oneself you open a door to become a victim. Hudud is a system to put fear in the baddest of people, if you a good person why do you have to be afraid. If you are not a thief, why do you have to be scared to get caught. Religion is what teaches a person from right and wrong because only god knows what is good for you and what is not. If a person choose a religion as an act of free will, meaning they don’t understand their own religion and they trying to pick what good and what’s not for them self. Rather then take all of the rules being implemented. A smoker who smoke half a cigarette and the one whole smoke the whole cigarette is exposed to the same chemical and giving the 2nd smoker the chance of cancer. Same as religion, you can’t say u take half the religion or don’t believe at all. You have to understand it and take all of it.
Excuse me!
If I want to take half the religion and reject the half, what’s it to you?
You are God to say no?
Anytime you want to debate the hudud, name the time, date and place.
Otherwise, please conduct your khutbah somewhere else.

First of all, I don’t have any problem with Hudud Law. But the problem is, how are we going to be sure that the Law will not be abused. Although one might say this is God’s Law, but as far as I am concerned, the one that is going to deliver the punishment is human being, not God. IMO, I believe that the Hudud Law is meant to ensure that all human being get a fair and just trial, just like our common law. So instead of pushing for Hudud Law, why can’t we just fix our judiciary. I believe that will serve the same purpose for Hudud Law.
You dont have a problem with the hudud?
Good!
I do.
some might say it is God’s law?

Let’s retrace the stale cookie trail to see where this latest hudud hubbub started – Dr. M’s statement some week’s back. And PAS fell (once again) into the trap of playing into the issue. Or getting played into responding in the most knee-jerk of ways.
Yes, PAS in the past has used hudud as their raison d’etre, something that the more reasonable within the party are trying to downplay, because they KNOW that there are bigger and more pressing issues to tackle. But like any political party, PAS is fragmented, and the ulama fragment is the one that usually gets the limelight. And it is this fragment, too, that’s been stupidly knee-jerk in their response.
No, I am not defending what TGNA said – there is NO justification for it being okay to get raped.
Meanwhile, UMNO on the ground is using PR’s non-decisive posture (or so it seems) to their advantage claiming on the one hand that PAS is not committed to hudud anymore (as if UMNO were), putting PAS down as DAP puppet. The other BN component parties are jumping on the bandwagon to attack DAP for not making a strong enough stand (as if MCA/Pakatan/MIC really have much say within BN). And it doesn’t help one iota that PKR leadership is making their 15-minutes of stupidity by supporting the implementation of hudud in Kelantan.
Bottom line – this is ALL politics. But it’s politics that can spill over into realpolitik and real action, which is the bigger danger. PR needs to keep their testosterone in check, and come out with a well-thought out response to put all these shenanigans to rest. Each person trying to claim their 15 minutes is not helping.
This nation has already made a BIG blunder by allowing religion to creep into the public sphere, and permeate through it over the past decade or so to the extent that there are now people who actually think that we were never meant to be secular from day one. To undo what damage has been done is difficult, but possible. But it’s not going to be popular, nor is it something that can be done overnight.
The question I have now is who has the guts to do what’s right, rather than what’s popular, leading to further, perhaps irreparable, damage?

Hudud or not will not make an iota of difference when our enforcement and judiciary are as corrupt as they are.
It will merely increase the amount people have to pay to worm their way out of a fix, real or otherwise.
We should start living by the true principles of Islam first.
Its no secret that the rulers of this country, both royalty and politics have been Islam and Islamic in their believes.
What have they got to show for it?
Finally, before we go on comparing our crime statistics with Saudi Arabias and say oh look Hudud is a better system, I want Saudis statistics to be compared with Singapores.
You will then see that Hudud is not a better system than common law but it shows that our system is screwed up because of corruption and BN.

( needs 2 male witnesses to even report rape ,unless you have been raped in front of male members of eg.your family who care about you..hudud says you havent been raped!…silly me I thought the author of this blog, socrates and “rational human being” would appreciate this point being highlighted.

It is not that Tok Guru’s words are offensive ……. what he said reflects what is inside of him … how he thinks. And to be sure, while being a shrewd politician, he has a very narrow mind, religiously simplistic.
Look at Saudi Arabia, look at Afghanistan for examples of covering the aurat ….. yet look at how high the incidence of rape and abuse of women is over these countries. Sexual crimes occur because of animalistic and uncontrolled lust that is inside the man. If the eyes lead to sexual offence …. so the eyes lead to greed. ………. tell Tok Guru to instruct his muslim goldsmiths to cover all their gold pieces on the shelves .. for they will cause robbery to occur. If goldsmiths refuse to do so … rompak lah …. apa peduli?
Tell car owners to cover up their cars at all times even when they are driving out in town. Put a burqa over the cars …… if they don’t, rompak lah ……. bising buat apa?
So you see the fallacy of his logic. But his logic appeals to those with a small mind…….. and among his listeners are plenty of people with small minds. That is the danger.

Most you all are probably against hudud due to fact that it includes amputating the hnads of thieves
No, I just do not care to have anyone turn a faith that is premised on love, kindness and compassion into one of revenge.
Let me ask you all, if you are willing to accept the death penalty which involves say the hangman’s noose, firing squad, lethal injections and whatnot, why reject a form of punishment where criminals can still live to repent?
As I said earlier, this blog opposes all forms of violence, including that which is state-sanctioned. That includes any and all forms of corporal and capital punishment.
At least losing a limb is better than incarceration where you are more likely to get raped or beaten up to death by fellow inmates or worst, beaten up by the cops themselves
Why dont you ask one who is about to lose a limb whether her would prefer a period of incarceration instead?
Haris can back me up on the dangers of police lockup in this country

Let people voice out their opinions. Let us not assassinate people in the media.I have stopped reading a certain blog for i think the web master is devoid of any sincerity – just suave,charming and full of himself.

Does it mean that when we see a woman who does not cover her aurat our dick should, according to Allah’s design go erect? Otherwise we will be sinning against god? No wonder Nik Aziz does not wear pants!!

I would say that your dick is more likely to go erect if the lady next to you is 75% exposed compared to one who is covered from head to toe.

Nik Aziz shouldn’t have implied that if a woman tidak tutup aurat, maka padan muka dia kalau kena rogol.
Are today’s men of any civil society allowed to rape a woman just because they expose certain parts of the body? Rape is not acceptable in any modern society, be it one that has women clad in cloth from head to toe, nor those that allow men and women to wear as they please.
Lest we forget that God is the one who created us naked in the first place. And now we claim that God said we must cover up His work.

I find Nik Aziz a bit senile nowadays… hehehe… Honestly, I don trust anyone interpreting the law for me, be it secular or religious. If you check with 3 parties on 1 by-law, all 3 give you 3 different perspective! IF you ask 2 lawyers, they will also give you 2 perspectives. And ‘the words of God’ should be left as it is for one’s reading & understanding, without too much interpretation & ‘explanation’ by half-baked con men! Men have always used religion for political purposes, to protect & enrich themselves & their families. THey evoke God’s name not in worship, but to intimidate. What we need are laws & enforcement to protect the people, not discriminating against us. In Malaysia, we have seen how far the authorities have pushed the boundaries when the public is not looking – police, MACC, the court. And now we have to add Jais/MAIS/JAKIM to that list too! Already Jais/MAIS/JAKIM all think they are also part of some police force!! Yes, they are extremely forceful when taking action, even against non-Muslim! Remember the foreign couple holidaying in LangkawI a few years back?? Why do we have to end up policing the authorities & police, & now Jais/MAIS/JAKIM, instead of the other way around? We all know the answer, they are just incapable of upholding justice and maintaining law & order, without hurting the public. So, I guess it’s best for everyone’s sanity & safety to just stick to what we have, yes inherited, secular law, and try to reach the high standards our justice system & police were post-independance. Don need to be ashamed that we were once good, really good, after training by the Brits. Be ashamed to admit that things have taken a free-fall, during Mahathir’s time. Be ready to uplift our country, without the complications of who-done-it-dude-Hudud!!

Vasantha, As you so aptly put it, “You met the man (Nik Aziz)”. Nik Aziz is a respected “Tok Guru” but he is still a man, which makes him fallible. That means he is a good, pious, humble man, but he can still be mistaken. I am arguing that many of hudud’s penalties are not reversible in nature, and therefore when there is a miscarriage of JUSTICE, then how do you redress and compensate the sufferer enough?? Sew back his shrivelled arm?? I am also against the death penalty, even by secular law in a few places on Earth, because it is non-reversible.
Even if Gandhi were to push for Hudud Law, he would still be wrong, let alone Nik Aziz. That is why we should not MISplace our faiths in idolising fellow humans. We should instead KNOW what structural reforms we need and what civil liberties need to be infused into Malaysia. Forget cult personalities, and let us follow our COMMON SENSE!

Dear Haris, how about letting the hudud matter rest? Why do you seek to keep this highly divisive and manipulative issue in the limelight, esp after the PR had met and resolved their stand? (By the way, the title of this posting is seriously misleading.)
I am asking you from the viewpoint of a Malaysian who truly cares about installing a new government and paving the way for a more vibrant and genuine democracy in our country; and because of this, see PR as deserving of a chance at Fed Govt. I strongly believe, whatever the individual faults of the leaders, a PR govt will be more inclusive by far and this bodes well for citizen involvement.
Our political scene is finally shaping up for a two-party system and even a multiracial, issue-based one. So, to all interested in transforming this nation, the question we need to keep clearly in mind is: How are we helping the process of achieving a new government and a chance for Malaysia to recover from bad and repressive governance?
Humbly and sincerely for your consideration. Thank you.
P.S. I am glad the majority of the readers who left comments did not jump in emotional reaction to this posting of yours.

Bro,
For someone who’s claiming a place to be some sort of leader in society you are obviously knowledge challenged. One quality of a leader is he is well read and knowledgeable and an intellectual. For Zainah Anwar to make similar comments, what can you expect she is just a newspaper writer. But you are claiming to be a civil society leader. Someone even with the most basic knowledge in Islam knows you dont know very much in this area. My advise go learn before you ever speak again on this subject
I do not claim to be a civil society leader.

Anyone who believes that PAS will give up the Islamic state have got to be out of their minds. Its the same as George Bush who believes he can bomb Al-Qaeda and Taliban out of influence.
However, the truth is, the better way to deal with PAS and their Islamic agenda is ENGAGEMENT. We don’t walk away from talking or debate. The price of freedom is ever vigilance. Wanting to put it a way in a box that we never had to bother with is nice and understandable BUT its frankly not the way such difficult society issues are fixed.
The video shows reasoning that humours and entertains but even the audience knows its OVER-SIMPLIFICATION of very very difficult issues. This is what happens when you mix politics and religion. We all have busy and difficult lives and it appears such difficult thinking are not the business ordinary people but like it or not it does and will have to be dealth by what we think and want as individuals collectively.
The answer really is that PAS has to be engaged and debated in open secured environment for everyone to see, hear and talk about, not locked away in some hidden corner to fester and mutate – that has already happen thanks to our our self-interest driven society that created what PAS is today.

Dear Harris / Readers :
Just for khalwat operations only, conducted by respective State Religious Authorities we have had numerous fellow muslim malaysians dying, jumping from buildings, trying to escape presumably the humiliating manner in which the operations have been carried out.
Can someone compile the statistics (by States in Malaysia) over the years, data of number who have died in this manner. Also lets try to analyse the reasons, for each death that occurred. What led to the deaths in majority of these cases ? Trying to escape? Why is there a need to escape? Avoid humiliation, embarrasment? Why must there be humiliation and embarrasment ? What exactly is the golden thread running through these death cases? Unsatisfactory manner of conducting the operations or some other probable cause/s?
Do our personel involved (religious authorities) need further refined trainings and psychological courses whilst on these missions of khalwats? Now add hudud missions as well. Are we ready with the quality of present day enforcers that are available operating throughout the country? This is also a major factor in discussing Hudud besides other factors.
For good measure, lets also have a look at other Islamic countries enforcing khalwat/Hudud operations. Any reported deaths, statistics, whilst conducting operations only?

Tok Aziz, for whom so many of us undoubtedly have admiration and respect, has to be critisized.
He has to give in to more enlightened thinking on the issue of Hudud law….he is a conservative thinker and Malaysia is a modern society, whether Islamic or not…that is the tragedy, labelling it Islamic when it is by no means entirely so.
In the interests of our society as a whole, a people inspired by humane principles, and NOTHING ELSE, we have to say a very definite NO to Hudud.
If necessary we need to don our yellow t-shirts and do a peaceful protest in support of our fellow citizens in Kelantan, who are so innocently, or fearfully… silent.
If there is anything we need to do, very importantly, very urgently, it should be our collective willingness to be ready to correct society and not send it, carelessly, whole and entire ,into the arms of a menacing and brutal law which if it comes into effect, would only turn us into……ANIMALS and not HUMAN beings.

Satu lagi yang saya marah ialah ialah kecenderungan nak jadi bengis tak tentu hala apabila perkara-perkara berkaitan dengan hukum Allah disebut. Hampa tak nak, hampa punya pasal la. Tetapi sampai orang nak berusaha didik masyarakat mengenai hukum Islam pun tak boleh, tu yang aku sakit hati tu. Tak boleh langsung nak sebut fasal undang-undang Islam, terus menggelejat dan menjerkah tak tentu hala.
Perangai tak ubah macam perangai Umno. Allergic sangat dengan Islam.
Kita baru saja menjalankan kewajipan berpuasa dalam bulan Ramadhan. Untuk senang faham, saya ambil contoh puasa. Oleh kerana hanya orang Islam sahaja yang terpaksa menahan diri dari makan minum serta lain-lain pada siang hari bulan Ramadhan sedangkan yang bukan Islam boleh sedap-sedap mengenyangkan perut mereka, adakah saya nak kata, “is this fair?”
Adakah saya nak tolak kewajipan berpuasa semata-mata kerana orang bukan Islam tak puasa?
Begitulah juga, apabila kita tak boleh nak paksa orang bukan Islam memeluk Islam, takkan pula kita nak paksa supaya mereka juga tertakluk kepada hukum-hukum Islam. Hakikat bahawa mereka tidak tertakluk kepada hukum Islam itulah yang lebih adil kepada mereka.
Yang tidak adil ialah apabila kita mempersoalkan kenapa kita saja yang kena dan depa tak kena. Apa adilnya menolak hukum-hukum Islam sedangkan hati kita masih nak jadi Muslim? Apa adilnya tak nak ikut peraturan tentera sedangkan pada masa yang sama tak nak pula keluar dari pasukan tentera?

Anyone who claims Malaysia to be secular is either ignorant or paid someone to get his law degree. The fact that the religion of the Federation is Islam negates any notion of secularism in Malaysia. In addition, hudud is law that is practiced by Muslims for the last 1400 years ago. And no one in the Muslim world complains about it. Except for Haris and his band of misfits, the majority of Muslims in Malaysia is 100% behind Hudud.

It is in the Constitution, Tulang Besi. Read it. I can’t imagine what a corrupt govt. can do with hudud law, with so many miscreants ready to be “witnesses” to convict Opposition politicians, and anyone who opposes the govt. This would be a worse nightmare than ISA or EO. I am sure most right thinking Muslims can see that the hudud system can be abused and used to abuse innocents, and will stand against its administration and operation, as the system is fallible, and too dependent on “witnesses” of impeccable character, and only male witnesses!
Also the system is not reversible, and redress and compensation in case of miscarriage of Justice is totally inadequate. We should remove the death penalty whether hudud is implemented or not. Run a referendum (after proper electoral reforms) and see where and who will support hudud. It should be an eye-opener!

Some years ago I came across stories of how female babies in China were aborted or drowned / abandoned as new-borns all because Chinese families grossly over-valued male children and there was a one-child per family rule. I thought that was so sad and ridiculous..
Then I read of cases where a Muslim father in war-torn places like Afghanistan and Iraq had killed his own daughter who had been raped due to the dishonour factor.
I am not knowledgable in Islam, but I’d still hazard an opinion that I do not think such a killing is what Islam really calls for. Rather that was a fruit of human beings who fed on each other’s self-affirmation, ignorance and plain big-headedness.
And that is what I fear where the hudud issue may be heading.
I would not place Nik Aziz in that category despite the video Haris posted. (Indeed I just came across some 2000 article in which Nik Aziz said essentially the same thing).
I have heaps of respect for Nik Aziz, but in the matter of his stance on dressing and rape, I cannot agree with him.
So he is human.
Hopefully, he is open enough to hear the views of others, and who knows, he may yet issue a statement to correct what he had said in the video.
But I have no hope in any of the UMNO loud-mouths in the current regime where hudud is concerned. Iy will come down to saying whatever they figure will get them the most votes.

Dear everyone,
I am deeply concerned at the state of things in our country. Islam is the majority religion in our country. Many of us are unduly worried about Islam. Its teachings are universal. Basically it advocates what it thinks is right to be on the right path. Unfortunately, we oftentimes see sacred institutions like the media,royalty and the judiciary being manipulated for the benefit of some unscrupulous people.PAS has come a long way. It is striving to reach out to everyone without compromising its fundamental position as a Islamic party. If we are hesitant to meet benevolent PAS halfway, we may one day be seeing radical Islamic uprisings in our country, as what is happening in the Middle East today. Non malays in the East Coast, especially in Kelantan are very happy with PAS. Well, the saying, ‘Tak Kenal, maka tak cinta’.
We need a strong Malay of high integrity to rally around everyone and bring about a significant change in our political scene. Anwar seem too busy fighting his own demons. I have great respect for Guan Eng but I do not see the majority of Malays throwing in their lot with him. The reason being, they too have their fears. This feeling of distrust and suspicion among Malaysians has been used to the benefit of unsavory politicians out to further their personal agenda. Many would happily settle for a datukship or ministerial post to meekly follow orders like KSKoon.

Principles of Hudud Laws are fine, as claimed by the many, as God’s guidelines. i respect the believes of my muslim brothers & sisters, though i be a christian but we all know that what God wills, Man has a way to twist it for his own benefit. Implementing Hudud is one thing but preventing it’s abuse is a gamble i will not take. it’s not the laws that bother me but the “NAFSU KUASA’ or simply the abuse of power in the hands of the irresponsible that implement those laws. WHERE WERE YOU who support the Hudud laws that do not affect the non-muslims when dead bodies were snatched just because they say you are muslims or somebody sms’s to say a church is converting non-christian and everybody goes berserk, or the right to a place to worship is refuse and a cow head was dragged around or they give permission to erect a chinese religious statue in east malaysia & then refuse permission cause some of you objected. The problem here is that you support these Hudud laws because as a Muslim you feel it’s your duty but as a non-muslim, though i admire your faith in your religion, i have to honestly say that it’s the muslims who have done the greatest injustice to God’s laws at the expense of the non-muslims. You know this to be true, since even as the beautiful colors of the rainbow were created by God, now yellow is illegal. I sincerely mean no disrespect to Islam or muslims but sincerely am afraid of the implementation of Hudud laws by over-zealous authorities & self-serving politicians who, once having this power in their hands, even Tok Guru or you my fellow malaysian muslim brothers & sisters will not be able to control.

You both manage to keep tempers at bay…..remarkable and your concerns are the concerns of so many of us.
But I would hardly want to complement PAS as being benevlolent when it advocates such an abraisive and brutal law, which invests a human being with shame and desperate sorrow for his/her lifetime, or even death.
Mr. Doss if you remember, so many of our own Muslims were enraged when the cowhead was so daringly displayed to bring deliberate abuse to the Hindus. Do you remember that a few muslims even went to the temple to say how sorry they were when their so called elders threw abuse on God, although God in a different form.
I still think that many of our Muslims are so afraid.

Dear Shakuntala,
Why do you call the law brutal and abraisive? The crime that is committed justify these punishments.
To me, one has to look into oneself and see if one’s value is intact before villifying hudud in such a libelous manner.
In short, one’s rejection of hudud reflects one’s lacking in morality and respect for humanity

There is no place for hudud in today’s modern society, and to me the laws of hudud are simply barbaric. Just watch the movie titled “The Stoning Of Soraya M”, based on a true story that took place in Iran, then you will know why I say hudud laws are barbaric.
Hudud laws are primitive laws for primitive times, these laws are savagely cruel, exceedingly brutal, primitive and unsophisticated.
Hudud directly contradicts the very spirit of democracy, if hudud is allowed then democracy is as good as dead period.

Dear Mr. Tulang Besi
Thank you, for the sharing..
I’d advice you and anyone who thinks like you, to spend your time and energy on ideas which would help to reform and re-enforce existing laws in this country which are blatantly flouted by the so called holy people the rich and the famous as well as the ordinary citizen.
For instance, a family with a few under-aged children are being driven around some of the crowdest parts of the city, without safety precautions,…..babies not in protective cots and children without seat belts on.. Can Hudud help for this kind of blatant disregard of the law?
How can Hudud help to prevent cars that are parked indiscriminately and illegally,on our streets because the drivers are too lazy to park according to the law, or during the Sunday services of christians,where the same thing happens. Would cutting or deflating tyres by the police, be something too difficult to enforce?
Could you please share your thoughts, once again, Mr. Tulang Besi?
By the way, you are defending the Hudud law behind the use of the term God’s Law.

Dear Shakuntala,
Offences that is traffic in nature is not something we inherit from the pagan culture. Hudud is designed to combat pagan culture i.e. adultery, blasphemy, fornication, intoxication, infanticide. When hudud was introduced, the Arab soceity was steeped in Pagan culture. Sadly, the Pagan culture is seeing massive resurrection even among Muslims. Thus, the need to reintroduce hudud into Muslim soceity.

Manusia yg tidak tahu berterimakasih kpd Penciptanya sering menyalahkan apa saja undang-undang termasuk hudud yg Penciptanya aturkan hidup bahagia dan selamat utk dirinya. Elok direnungi kembali apakah nikmat-nikmat yg Maha Suci Allah swt telah berikan dan sediakan kpd manusia. Begitu banyak sekali sehingga tak tersebut. Malangnya mereka alpa dan buat-buat lupa. Instinct mereka tahu kalau lawan Maha Pencipta kemana sudahnya.
Nikmat 2 biji mata dapat melihat..kalau kita berbuat baik sepanjang usiapun takkan dapat ganti nikmat atau pleasure to see. Nikmat makan dan telan makanan hingga ke dlm perut. Kalaulah tiada gigi takkan dapat manusia itu merasai makanan yg digemari. Kalaulah tiada lidah takkan dapat tolak makanan itu kedlm kerongkong utk dihadamkan. Kalaulah tiada sistem penghadaman yg dikurniakan Allah takkan dapat manusia itu rasa kenyang.
Hudud adalah nikmat dari Allah. Bila terlaksana saja hudud, manusia yg ingin melakukan kejahatan terhenti dgn noktah yg pertama lagi. Air liur ketakutannya terrtelan kerana takutnya kpd betapa dahsyatnya hukuman Allah bagi para penjenayah. Selamat manusia dari menjadi mangsa kejahatan penjenayah. Itulah yg dikatakan Nakaalan minalllah. Penyelesaian itu hanyalah dari Allah.
Kalau tiada hudud dilaksanakan…lihatlah sendiri berbagai bentuk jenayah yg belum pernah terpikir oleh manusia lain tergamak penjenayah lakukan terhadap sesama insan. Maha hebatnya Shari’ah aturan Allah. Cuma org yg mahu menggunakan fikiran saja yg dapat melihat betapa Maha Bijaksananya Allah swt mengatur hidup makhluq-makhluqnya.
