PANAS! LIM CHEE WEE, PRESIDEN BAR COUNCIL KENA SOUND LAGI!!

Presiden Bar Council, Lim Chee Wee diberi peringatan hari ini oleh Menteri dalam Jabatan Perdana Menteri, DS Jamil Khir Baharom.

Jamil Khir memperingatkan Presiden Majlis Peguam (Bar Council) itu supaya menghormati sensitiviti umat Islam dengan tidak mencampuri hal ehwal agama Islam!

Sebelum ini MiM telah menyiarkan laporan kenyataan Lim Chee Wee yang menyuarakan kebimbangan terhadap pindaan yang dibuat ke atas Enakmen Mufti dan Fatwa (Kedah Darul Aman) 2008 baru-baru ini yang dipertikaikan oleh seorang peguam.

Peguam itu, Mohd Khairul Azam Abdul Aziz berkata, Majlis Peguam tidak seharusnya mengeluarkan kenyataan sedemikian kerana ia bercanggah di bawah Akta Profesion Undang-undang 1976 kerana ia bersifat ultra vires. BACA SINI

Kenyataan Jamil Khir itu ada asasnya dan sangat bertepatan. Lebih-lebih lagi apabila kita turut berdepan dengan pemimpin-pemimpin Islam dalam PKR dan parti PAS yang kononnya memperjuangkan Islam tetapi diam membisu apabila ada pihak bukan Islam yang dikatakan mencampuri hal ehwal agama Islam.

Sikap membisu kepimpinan pakatan haram pembangkang itu sudah pasti akan mengecewakan umat Islam di negara ini terutamanya penyokong PAS yang sangat mengharapkan kepimpinan PAS untuk menjuarai isu agama Islam. Malangnya, harapan tersebut berkecai dan sudah pasti akan memudahkan mereka untuk tidak menyokong PAS dan pembangkang lagi.

MALACCA, June 11 — Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Jamil Khir Baharom today reminded Bar Council president Lim Chee Wee to respect the sensitivities of Muslims by not interfering in Islamic religious affairs.

"The issues of Islam are too sensitive to be discussed by the non-Muslims and this is a common understanding among the multi-racial and multi-religious people in Malaysia.

"I cannot understand when somebody who understands this ‘unwritten’ regulation (but) still [tries] to interfere in matters concerning the mufti institution and Islamic affairs.

"He said this to reporters after attending the seminar on Understanding Wassatiyah and the Concept of 1 Malaysia launched by Malacca Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam here today.

He was commenting on Lim’s recent statement that the amendment to Kedah Mufti and Fatwa Committee Enactment 2008, which barred all fatwa (edicts) from being challenged in court, was unconstitutional.

In another development, Jamil Khir also reminded Malaysians not to hold any more gatherings at the Nabawi Mosque in Medina and Masjidil Haram (the Grand Mosque) in Mecca as organised by certain quarters on April 26.

He said the message was conveyed to him by the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to Malaysia following their concern over the security issues in the two locations.

Jamil Khir said the decision concerning the quota for Malaysian hajj pilgrims would also be known through a letter from the Saudi government next month. — Bernama
