Dear Editor,
The bill on banning places of worship for other religions is totally pathetic. Do we need bills on all kinds of schizophrenia? This is like passing a bill that bans all places dark just because an MP is Achluophobic!
Since our Constitution is based on Islamic Sharia, no law can contradict Islamic Sharia. If these so-called God fearing and self-proclaimed people of knowledge prohibit something that is allowed in Islam, what do they stand for? Wouldn’t they become non-believers then for making Haram what is lawful in Islam?
Why are we so afraid to learn the facts and debate the pros and cons of issues rather than succumb into the coziness of the status quo?
Regards,
Haleem
