AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Muslims in Malaysia are advised not to act above the law and religion boundaries in response to the publication of caricatures depicting Prophet Muhammad Peace Be Upon Him.
Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim) deputy director-general (Operations) Datuk Abdul Aziz Jusoh said this was because such action could create disharmony among the country’s multi-religious society.
“Islam forbids human actions which may lead to harm, evil, violence, tyranny whether among Muslims or non-Muslims.
“Islam rejects any extremist movement that uses violence, murder and war that threaten the peace of the country and the world,” he said in a statement in conjunction with the Maulidur Rasul celebration today.
Commenting further, Abdul Aziz said Jakim condemned the provocative action of the publication of the caricature by the French weekly satirical newspaper.
“This issue should not be raised, let alone when Muslims around the world are now celebrating the month of Rabiulawal, the birth month of Prophet Muhammad,” he said.
