Fatwa on Yoga, Non Muslims blogger + Malaysiakini readers comments and Muslims feeling

After Majlis Fatwa issued the Tomboy Fatwa, a few non Muslims and Islam Liberal NGO and individuals made comments which many Muslims feel hurt hearing about. I made a post on the matter and made a test of what if, we Muslims made a similar comments on non Muslims by using back their words.. and as a result,they failed miserably.. I was called names , even being called a 'bastard' and 'idiot'... well.. that's explain a lot.. In their comments, their angry is with UMNO.. but they attack like all muslims/Malays are UMNO people... which is very wrong... I'm no UMNO guy... we Muslims too feel the same on those insulting comments made by these 'IDIOTS" too....

Some confused on the word 'HARAM' here... most non muslims who criticized the fatwa in their blogs or at Malaysiakini did translate it as 'BAN'.. which is not true... Haram means many things in Islam... and Haram in this case is more towards 'forbidden" or 'not allowed'.. They should check their fact first before making criticism

The real reason is... most of them did not know what is a fatwa before making comments criticizing the Majlis Fatwa... One blogger did copy and paste the definition of Fatwa... but he failed to understand what he copy and past is all about and continue to attack the fatwa... If he understand of what he copy and paste, he will not attack the fatwa on Yoga...

Another blogger did ask if there will be a fatwa on tosai... which i think is very idiotic thinking... and in the post, one reader (tzul) did point out some rational explanation to him...

Some Malaysiakini readers too wrote some idiotic comments on the fatwa rulings which can be categorized as 'stupid comments" such as fatwa on Karate etc... which most of ot comes from their lack of knowledge on Islam and what is a fatwa....

The point is, they did not look at the statement of the Majlis Fatwa... The "senaman' itself is not haram... Majlis Fatwa just mentioned that it is not recommended.... the one that is haram is where there involves rituals and 'mantra' in it... As Islamic faith is based on Akidah... if the akidah is corrupt, then goes the faith and the shahadah... this is the reason... not that because it belongs to any particular race or religion... if a silat has some 'mentera' or jampi which is considered 'syirik'.. than it is also haram.... many silat already in this situation before such as "silat Pesaka Tujuh Negeri Perlis"... and Silat Gayong Makrifat... It's simple... everything is on akidah.... on Makyong... Kelantan already ban it.. only UMNO people are championing it now...

In this case, if a thing is haram, we must say it is haram... we cannot say a haram thing as makroh or halal... Maybe in some instance, Islam Hadhari did that... making something which is haram as halal and vice versa....

Many did question about fatwa on corruption and detention without trials... If you understand what is a fatwa, then you will not make such question... It is because, a fatwa is issued on something that is not clear on its status... such as Amanah Saham Bumputra, Yoga, Tomboy.. putting flowers at Tugu etc.. and it is issued only when there is a question arise... read more at wikipedia to understand it... and these fatwa is not legally binding... People are still smoking cigarette even when there is already a fatwa saying that smoking cigarette is haram... and Abdullah Badawi is still putting flower at Tugu Negara eventhough Majlis Fatwa said it is Haram... Only DYMM Agong (Raja Perlis as Ex Agong and Sultan Terengganu as current Agong) did not do this ritual as they know the hukum... but nobody are arresting Abdullah Badawi, cigarette smokers for violating the fatwa....

In the case of corruption and detention without trials.... it is very clear in Islam... that Corruptions is Haram as the money and property gained is not according to halal guideline.. and so does detention without trials as it is an act of cruelty (zalim)... Something that is clear of its status does not need a fatwa...

Sister in Islam is one of the champion on these issues.. which I believe their motives is to attack anything that the Majlis Fatwa issued which they deems not according to their Islam Liberal belief... Their reasoning is according to their thinking.. not according to Al Quran and Hadith.... BTW.. where are they on the struggle to fight commercials exploitation of women especially on advert??? We would like to see more of it from SiS.....

These kind of comments attacking the Fatwa only serve UMNO and BN more.. as UMNO and BN will incites the Muslims sentiments by linking these people to Pakatan Rakyat... but in reality.. these people links more towards UMNO and BN... SiS for example is more towards UMNO.. as the daughter of all 4 previous PM is their patrons and Zainah Anwar... one of the big shot in SiS is a family friend of Abdullah Badawi through Handon and Nori... many non Muslim bloggers who made comments are not even a party member of Pakatan Rakyat parties... they just gives their supports to PR... (I'm not saying all... as some did joined PR parties)

Tomboy fatwa and comment by Non Muslims at malaysiakini blog rolls... my answer

After Majlis Fatwa made a ruling on Tomboy, there was a few groups and people protesting about it including many of the Non Muslims NGO who made comments which as a muslim, I felt insulted... They made comments without understanding what is a FATWA... which really made themselves look like FOOLS...
Amongthose who made comments are..:
Jueheng - Tom-boy-ism : My Body, My Choice, Fatwa Ruling (Decree) contravenes UN Convention
Ivy Josiah,Tomboy-ism: My body, my choice - Katagender, Food Not Bombs as well as the following 19 individuals: Cheneille Neo Ming Yi, Dahlia Martin, Eugene Ch'ng, Lainie Yeoh, Lee Wei San, Lee Jia Hui, Leow Mei Chern, Mohd Rizman, Nurul Amani Faizal Poodien, Puan llli Farhana, Puan Azreen Madzlan, Shikeen Arif, Thilaga Sulathireh, Wan Azhar Bin Wan Ahmad Wong Chai Yi, Yusmar Mohd Yusof and Zedeck Siew.
Fatwa ruling contravenes UN convention - Angela Kuga Thas, Julian Lee from Women’s Candidacy Initiative,
Azrul Mohd Khalib , SANGKAKALA, Sister in Islam etc...

So.. here's my reply.... :


First of all... do you know what is fatwa????? If you don't know... please don't make any comment which is insulting Islam...

For your info.. FATWA is guidelines agreed by the Ulama... without having enforcement power to follow.. no arrest for those who don't follow... so it's up to MUSLIMS to decide to follow of not... If you don't follow.. it's between you and the god... but FATWA will be useful for MUSLIMS who want to follow religious teaching to be as a GUIDELINE..

The best case is.. Majlis FATWA had made a ruling that puting flowers at Tugu Negara is HARAM... but That Dollah Badawi went there every years to do so as he is a Islam Hadhari... Islam Ikut Hari... But DYMM Agong did not do that (Raja Perlis and current Agong) as they follow the fatwa that it is haram.. it's haram because it is a Syirik thing... so Dolah badawi will answer it with Allah... but he's not arrested for putting flower at Tugu negara...

So does the Amanah Saham Bumiputra.... as 25% of its NAV is invested in Maybank - a conventional bank involve in Interest/Riba which is haram in Islam... but many thousands of Muslims still invested in it and they are not arrested for it.. those who want to follow... will take their money elswhere like Prudential Unit Trust Islamic Funds which follows the Islamic financial guidelines....

To make it simple.. Hindu religion says that Hindu cannot eat beef.. so does this ruling too contravenes the UN convention too???
"cannot eat beef" for Hindu is a guideline for Hindus to follow... and not enforced on them...

veggies cannot eat meat... so does this also contravene the UN convention too??? were they arrested if they eat meat???

So... now you had made yourself look like a fool to comment about that Tomboy FATWA without having to know what is a FATWA????? hahahahha shame on you....
