Malaysia Today:

A TRUE MUSLIM MUST OPPOSE THE RULER

All the great Prophets and Imams of Islam too opposed their Pharaohs, Emperors, Kings, Caliphs, Sultans, Governors, etc. And many died for that, died at the hands of these Rulers.

Our Comments:

1. The author is using Islam again to drive through his political point. We condemn him to the bones for insulting Islam again. The author talks as if only Muslims who oppose the Rulers are true Muslims. It is not for him to judge who are true Muslims and who are not. This is the last thing any knowledgeable and wise propagator of Islam would do to promote and propagate Islam correctly.

2. Does he really know the difference between Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah and Shiah? Well, we’ll discuss that in length in our next article titled “Islamic Jurisprudence – Part 2” in the days ahead.

3. For now, it is suffice to say that the author’s biased and distorted view of the ‘Da’wah’ work done by the Great Prophets and Messengers a.s. of Allah s.w.t. was not like what Islam says. The central theme of their call to the people is ‘At-Tauhid’ i.e. the Oneness of Allah s.w.t. This call does not care whether the target audience is a Ruler or a commoner. It is the same call. Only the approaches and methodologies may vary from location, time and society.

4. The author should not instigate and blow up the differences between the Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama’ah and the Shiah to prove his point of supporting Nizar. He is being selfish. He is acting traitorously in the sense that he is instigating the people to be traitorous to the Sultan of Perak, whether directly or indirectly. Once a traitor always a traitor. We should encourage unity among the Muslims by not bringing forth differences when facing the common enemies of Islam, like the Jews who have mercilessly attacked the Muslims in Palestine and the armies that have invaded Iraq and Afghanistan in the name of democracy. Let the people of these countries decide their own fates in their own homeland. To help them achieve this through peace talks and mediations are highly commended.

5. So, we strongly recommend that the Government seriously take action against this author so that he can no longer deceive, instigate and propagate treacherous acts, divide the society and cause confusion among the Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Charge him in court until kingdom come. Period.

Best Regards.........

Congratulations To Datuk Seri Najib !!!!!!!!!

Down Memory Lane

Malaysia Today:

THE MAN WHO SHOULD BE KING

Last weekend I had the pleasure of renewing my 30-year acquaintance with a really lovely guy I've always known as Bok, though his official name is Raja Zailan Putra Raja Dato' Seri Haji Azam.

A mutual friend introduced us back in 1979 or 1980. I knew at the time that Bok boasted a royal pedigree. I saw photographs in his modest house of colorful characters in courtly regalia.

One that stood out was of Bok's great-grandfather, Raja Muda Abdullah (right), who signed the 1874 Pangkor Treaty with Sir Andrew Clarke and was anointed Sultan Abdullah of Perak.

Things started to go awry soon after that when the British sent a colonial officer named James Wheeler Woodford Birch (3 April 1826 - 2 November 1875) to Perak to serve as advisor to the Sultan.

Our Comments:

1. To set the record straight once and for all, the late Sultan Alang Iskandar Shah had an admonition about Tengku Putra Ash-Sha'ari. His Highness said to Tengku Putra Ash-Sha'ari, "You have been chosen to take care of our family, so you cannot become a Sultan". So, that is what Tengku Putra Ash-Sha'ari has been been doing all this while with so much dedication. Not even once came across his mind to be a Sultan, although he is of this breed. He knows that he was entrusted with this very important and heavy responsibility on all the affected States, including Brunei. All of us in the group are like this.

2. A final warning to all and sundry, let the Royals handle their own Royal matters themselves. Do not interfere, especially the UMNO politicians.

3. We condemn Antares, the author of the MAGICK RIVER blog to the bones for his latest post in distorting the facts of Perak's history, especially on the Royals.

4. Dato' Maharaja Lela was a pious and knowledgeable man. Sultan Abdullah entrusted him to be the Qadhi at that time. He was known as Dato' Maharaja Lela 'Pancung Tak Bertanya' (Behead without asking).

5. The killing of Birch was not due to him bathing in a river naked. At that time, Birch was having a shower in his bath when he was killed. Birch was very obnoxious and repressive towards the people of Perak at that time. He wanted to control Sultan Abdullah and his subjects to the letter. So, that is why the subjects at that time revolted and assassinated Birch. Furthermore, the people of Perak wanted to free themselves from British rule. Then, the colonial masters blamed Sultan Abdullah for the uprising and exiled him. For a better account of the incidents that had happened, read here, here, here, here, here and here.

6. This was what the colonial journalist wrote about Sultan Abdullah:

"As for Raja Abdullah, who started off by receiving British recognition but ended up by being exiled to the Seychelles, Birch found him 'eminently silly and foolish' and conveyed in his reports the lowest possible estimate of the prince's moral character. But Birch obviously had an axe to grind. Sir Andrew Clarke, the freshly arrived Governor of the Straits, formed a different impression when he interviewed Abdullah. 'It may be here stated that the Raja Muda has been represented as a person of such debauched habits, and bad health, mental and bodily, as to be unfit to rule: but it was only necessary to be in his company for a few minutes to see that this was an erroneous opinion. The Raja Muda not only looked well in health, but was alert and ... more than ordinarily sharp and intelligent'. 'It is charitable to suppose', observed Swettenham, 'that early disappointment had embittered his life, for he possessed good qualities. He was undeniably intelligent, and had a wider knowledge of his country than any other man in it. He knew his own mind, was determined to obstinacy, and asked counsel of few.'"

For more details, read this book to know more about our history from the perspective of the colonial masters.

7. There is no information in our records that showed Dato' Maharaja Lela at that time had used the native people as slaves. What we know was that Dato' Maharaja Lela and his people Islamized the natives. The native leader in Perak, Tok Bayas, became a Muslim and married one of our family.

8. So, we condemn Antares again to the bones for distorting the history of Perak. Antares and whoever like him shall suffer the wrath of Allah s.w.t. for their traitorous acts towards the Royals, now and then, inshaAllah.

9. So, learn history in the correct perspective so that we can get the wisdom that came with every incident. Truth will always prevail, inshaAllah.

Best Regards.........

He Has Not Learnt A Lesson And Never Will !!!!!!!!!

The Malaysian Insider:

Dr M still slams Pak Lah

KUALA LUMPUR, March 30 - The so-called rapprochement between Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi could be stillborn after the former prime minister continued biting criticism against his successor.

This time, Dr Mahathir took his criticism to an international audience, using the platform of the BBC to say that "everthing went rotten" after Abdullah became prime minister.

He also lashed out at Khairy Jamaluddin and Kamal Abdullah, the son of the PM saying that both men decided on policies during the Abdullah era.
"Everything went wrong when Abdullah took over...", he said.

Despite being asked several times, if some of the problems in Umno and Malaysia was the result of mistakes which he made during 22 years as the PM, Dr Mahathir refused to acknowledged any shortcomings.

Our Comments:

1. The main reason why UMNO and the Government is so corrupted today is because of the 22 years of Dr Mahathir Mohamad's autocratic rule. He himself is corrupted and popularly known as Mr 10%. He's trying to point a finger at Abdullah but the people know that he is trying to hide from his own mistakes. He can deceive people outside Malaysia and who are naive but he cannot deceive people like us.

2. His cohorts say that the Opposition is going around the World condemning the Government but Dr M is also doing the same thing. These are the people who are the real trouble makers.

3. Do we think that 22 years of corruption borne by Dr M can be eliminated in just 5 years during Abdullah's time? That's why we have strongly urged Abdullah to stay on as PM until 2013 to complete his reform agenda. If Abdullah steps down now from being the PM, then Dr M and his cohorts will return to the old days of autocratic rule of Dr M. And this is not good for democracy.

4. What good is material progress and development when the Government (especially from UMNO) is corrupted to the core. So, Abdullah's reform agenda to improve on the human capital is critically needed to eradicate corruption in the Government and BN.

5. Taking credit when in good times and denying accountability when in bad times is not a good statesman's trait. This trait is typical of an opportunist.

6. To us, Dr M picking Abdullah as PM was not a mistake. This is the beginning of a process to cleanse the Government and Malaysia from corruption, materialism, cronyism, tyrannism and whatever bad ism that there are in our society. In fact, Dr M himself is in a self-denial mode.

7. The so-called rapprochement between Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi was just a show for UMNO to gain popularity.
