DAP man slams Hadi for claiming party seeks to ‘destroy Malay-Muslims’
Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali says DAP would be banned if it truly opposes Islam by 'continuing the work of colonisers', as stated by the PAS president
DAP leader Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali said PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang was infamous for his repeated changes in political stance, pointing to his attacks against Umno in the past.
PETALING JAYA: PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang has been criticised for claiming that DAP is leading Pakatan Harapan in “continuing the work of colonisers to destroy Malay-Muslims”.
DAP central executive committee member Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali warned that Hadi was playing a dangerous political game and equating PAS with Islam itself.
The senator maintained that DAP respects the Federal Constitution, which clearly enshrines Islam’s position as the religion of the federation.
“If DAP opposes Islam, DAP would have been banned by now for opposing what is outlined in the Federal Constitution,” he said in a Facebook post.
Sheikh Umar also said Hadi was infamous for his repeated changes in political stance, pointing to the PAS president’s fierce opposition towards Umno in the past.
“In 1981, he declared Umno as ‘kafir’ (infidels), sowing division among (Malay-Muslims). But on July 27, in wanting to embrace Umno, he said the differences between PAS and Umno were merely secondary matters.”
In a Facebook post this morning, Hadi accused DAP of being at the helm of PH and seeking to eradicate Malay-Muslims.
The Marang MP cited DAP’s push for the revival of local council elections and its “Malaysian Malaysia” vision for the country, claiming that the latter was “extreme secularism”.
Hadi also accused DAP of opposing PAS’s agenda for an Islamic state and the implementation of shariah law in PAS-led states when both parties were allies previously.
Separately, Melaka DAP leader Kerk Chee Yee urged Hadi to learn from history instead of using it as a weapon to divide Malaysians of different races.
“We may have different religions, ethnicities and political beliefs, but we share the same country. Mature politics is defined by searching for common ground, not constantly looking for enemies.
“We may have differing opinions, but don’t build Malaysia’s future by sowing hatred,” the Ayer Keroh assemblyman said.
