‘Umno Prayers Not Accepted’: Non-Muslims Should Also Be Wary Of PAS Approach
(Malaysian Digest) – PAS spiritual leader, Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat has made yet another controversial statement regarding Muslim Umno members which should also make non-Muslims wary of the ‘holier-than-thou’ approach he has been adopting.
In a report on Utusan Online, Nik Aziz, in one of his talks last night at Kampung Jambu here, alleged that the prayers by Muslim Umno members will not be accepted by Allah as the party rejects Islamic policies.
He also claims that Umno has been rejecting Allah SWT all this while by practicing a national policy that rejects Islamic-based policies in its rule.
“Umno rejects Islam, rejecting Islam means rejecting Allah. This means their prayers will not bring ‘pahala’ (reward). How will their prayers be accepted if they reject Islam?”
At the same time, he also said that if PAS members reject Islam, they too will not receive ‘rewards’.
“This includes PAS members who are arrogant or stingy, they too will not be ‘rewarded’ in what they do,” he added.
“In order for our prayers to be accepted, it is not easy. How can one obtain ‘rewards’ if one rejects Islam? Allah brought Islam to us through Prophet Muhammad pbuh, and suddenly Umno rejects Islamic policies instead opting for national ones. How will they get ‘rewarded’ that way?” he said.
The talk was attended by some 500 people made up mostly of staunch PAS supporters.
Nik Aziz also urged Kelantanese to vote for PAS in the upcoming general election.
“If Umno gives money, take. They give sugar, stir it. They give you clothes, wear it. If they give you a cow, slaughter it. But when they hand you the ballot paper, make sure you vote for PAS,” he remarked.
On November 17 last year at a press conference in conjunction with PAS’ 58th Annual Assembly in Kota Bharu, Nik Aziz claimed that UMNO is an apostate party for rejecting Islam in its party’s policies.
He also threw a question asking if the party is now based on Christianity, Buddhism or simply an atheist party.
Prior to that, PAS, via Nik Aziz’s brother, Nik Razi Nik Mat prayed for the downfall of Umno and BN in a special prayer event held at Stadium Muhamad IV.
