Tuan Ibrahim on enemy tactics, indispensability
(Harakah Daily) – ‘No one is indispensable’ – that is the gist of PAS information chief Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man’s response to the controversy involving former deputy president Nasharudin Mat Isa and Selangor state exco Hasan Ali.
Writing in his column, Tuan Ibrahim however reminded PAS members to be wary of enemy tactics to cause frictions to bring down their foes.
“The enemy will use all methods to cause chaos and internal conflicts in the opposing organisation to the extent that knives will be pointed against friends,” warned Tuan Ibrahim (pic).
Earlier, PAS secretary general Mustafa Ali criticised both Hasan and Nasharuddin for dancing to UMNO’s tune by supporting efforts by UMNO to bring PAS out of Pakatan Rakyat and make alliance with the Malay party for the sake “unity”.
Tuan Ibrahim said what is even worse was that those being used by their enemies were also blinded by ego.
“To the extent that they are very confident that their actions are right while others are wrong,” he lamented.
And Tuan Ibrahim minced no words when he made known the solution to tackling such developments within the party.
“Sometimes it takes a hard slap to wake them up and make them realise that they are falling into enemy traps. So, the big question is, whether your weapon should be used against the enemy or your teammate, and worse, yourself?” he questioned.
In a struggle for Islam such as PAS’s, the Pahang PAS commissioner said conflicts were a divine test on Muslims.
“It comes in many forms, to test the person in the conflict, and to test how far others will go to help friends embroiled in conflicts,” he added.
In a team, Tuan Ibrahim said no one should make threats and consider themselves to be on a pedestal and immune from being reprimanded.
“We must realise in a team, collective opinion is better than personal opinion,” he said.
