Visiting my good friend, Vinod Sekhar, whose dearest mother passed away last night.
The late Puan Sri Sukumari Sekhar is the wife of former Chairman of Rubber Research Institute of Malaysia, Tan Sri B.C. Sekhar.
She was also the founder and Deputy President of National Council of Women’s Organisations Malaysia.
It is truly a big loss for the country and to those who also champion the rights of women and children.
I offer my condolences to the Sekhar family and pray that they’ll keep strong during this trying time.

Peristiwa Israk Mikraj adalah suatu peristiwa penting dan yang sangat dekat dengan umat.

Peristiwa ini menjadi penting tatkala ibadat solat diperintahkan Allah SWT membawa maksud besar dalam mencegah serta melawan kemungkaran dan menghidupkan sikap mulia di tengah masyarakat, melebihi dari pengertian ibadah dan ritual biasa.
"Sesungguhnya solat itu mencegah daripada perbuatan keji dan mungkar" (Surah al Ankabut: 45).

MEDIA STATEMENT
27 October 2020

French President Emmanuel Macron's statement that Islam is facing a crisis around the world is offensive as it is unreasonable. It promotes the very impasse it seeks to denounce.
More importantly, it makes the ‘problem’ exclusively a Muslim affair rather than a pernicious perspective embedded in doctrinaire French laïcité.
There is no defence for the violence and murders of the men of blood, the misguided homicidal monsters who pervert Islam. Macron himself has, on occasion, recognised informed definition of the complex origins and aberrant nature of this modern scourge.
