Oh My God!!

HADI CHANGES FROM FUNDAMENTALIST TO POLITICIAN JUST TO BE PM

PAS is in trouble as the party leaders balance themselves son a tightrope trying not to fall flat on their cheats and lies and their differences among themselves as well as with partners in Pakatan Rakyat (PR). President Abdul Hadi Awang is in a catch 22 position on the use of the word ‘ALLAH’ as he clashes with his deputy head of Syura Council Dr Harun Taib and information chief Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man. Hadi seems to be getting out of the ‘veterans league’ that had group together to fend off the onslaught by the liberals who are aligned to PKR de facto chief Anwar Ibrahim just two years ago. Dr Harun and Tuan Ibrahim were two of the few veteran fundamentalists that included Hadi and party secretary-general Mustapa Ali, warding off the liberals’ attack at that time and the victim was Nasharuddin Mat Isa, who was defeated by Mohamad Sabu or Mat Sabu as deputy president. However, Hadi is now seen as softening to Anwar’s pressure when he began contradicting the party’s philosophy and ideology in defending the sanctity of Islam when he loosen up of his fundamentalist’ stand.

The contradictory statements between Hadi and Dr Harun is not differences in opinions on the subject matter but it is pure contradiction which Hadi himself knows will invite trouble from within. But Hadi is in a desperate position as he tries to prevent erosion of support while at the same time pleasing the partners in PR. Walking on a tightrope, he now seems to be selling his principles one by one, as though he is under some kind of threats from outside, political threats that would put him to shame. Whether he is really under threats personally given the fact Anwar’s men are good in tracking past scandals and weaknesses of an intended victim, only Hadi knows and his behavior has invited more distrusts from members and supporters. To those members who intent to distance themselves and supporters who leave, Hadi is no longer the ulamaks they respected but a politician who ‘dance accordingly to the tunes’ of those he needs help or wanting to close certain ‘skeletons in the cupboard.’ Hadi is now a politician whose level is the same to that of Anwar and Lim Guan Eng, with the difference in dressing as Hadi always in his jubbah and turban while the other two in modern attire. Hadi is considered as a man who no longer aims to correct the wrongs but is a mere human who aims to be the Prime Minister, who aims for power more than ALLAH’s blessings. He is now a competitor to Anwar for the position and like Anwar, he now will do anything an including twisting fact like he did with his edict in 1981, so long as he achieves his aim and pleases his partners.

My Comment:

I disagree when Christians want to use the word “Allah” in their Bahasa Malaysia translated Bible. Allah was never born nor produces a child. Christians believe that Jesus is the son of God, therefore Christian’s God and my God, Allah is definitely different.

Please refer to surah al-Ikhlas from the Holy Qur’an.

The 112th chapter of the Qur’an is called al-Ikhlās, which literally means “sincerity” or “purity”. It is given this name since it affirms the purity of faith, uncorrupted by polytheism, and sincerity of worship to Allah alone without partner. It affirms in the most emphatic terms that Allah is One (al-Ahad), the only true God. It affirms that He is wholly Self-Subsisting (al-Samad), and negates any claim that He was born of another or that He has a child.  It then concludes by affirming His absolute uniqueness.

Allah’s names al-Ahad and al-Samad appear in the Qur’an only in this chapter.

Much can be said about the importance of this short chapter of the Qur’an. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) used to recite this chapter in the second unit of the Subuh Prayer. He would also recite it in the Witr prayer at night and in the prayer that he would offer after completing the circumambulation of the Ka`bah.

Al-Ikhlās was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) during the early days of Islam when the Muslims were still living in Mecca. The pagans of Mecca one day approached him and challenged: “Give us the genealogy of your Lord.”

It was then that Allah revealed the four brief verses of Sūrah al-Ikhlās to His Prophet:

Say: He is Allah, the One. Allah, the Self-Subsisting. He begets not, nor is He begotten, and there is none like unto Him. - [Sūrah al-Ikhlās: 1-4]

What Hadi declared is merely a political gimmick to win the heart of the Christians who are mainly Chinese, Indians and the Natives of Sabah/Sarawak at the next General Election which is round the corner before April 2013. The episode is a matter of “aqidah” and I do not wish to be a party and I strongly object to the use of “Allah” in the Bahasa Malaysia translated Bible. I do not wish to deviate from my aqidah. Thank you Allah for guiding me to abandon PAS.

No offence to the Christians as I believe in my religion. One big question, why now those concern want to use the word Allah instead of Tuhan?
