Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria reminded federal ministers yesterday against issuing statements based on logic and intellect when it comes to Islam, claiming that the intellect is influenced by desires and subsequently susceptible to the devil.
In a report carried by Malay daily Sinar Harian, the Perak mufti also warned Muslim ministers against deriding and belittling Islamic laws, as they risk breaching their oath of loyalty that was made in the name of Allah.
I advise them not to go overboard. Islam is based on faith Dont make any remarks based on the intellect or logic because they are laws of Allah, Harussani said.
The intellect is governed by desires and it is influence by shaitan (satan). Dont be ruled by desires and rudderless comments, he added, using the name of the Devil in Islamic lore.
Harussani said Muslim ministers, deputy ministers and state executive councillors have all taken their oaths in front of the Agong or a sultan, and sworn with the name of Allah to defend the Constitution.
The Constitution states that the Islam is the religion of the federation. Therefore, they cannot deride and belittle Allahs rules. If not, then it means they have breached their oaths, added the mufti.
Harussani made his remarks when asked by Sinar to comment on newly-appointed Minister in the Prime Ministers Department Datuk Azalina Othman, who commented on the countrys censorship laws which she said had stunted the creative industry.
Azalina had said that the Film Censorship Board needs to relax its guidelines against banning intimate physical contact between Muslim male and female actors, since they were only acting out their roles.
Her remark has since enraged Islamic groups, including independent preacher Datuk Mohd Kazim Elias who urged her to repent.
Azalina was appointed as the chairman of the National Film Development Corporation on June 2, but stepped down last week following her appointment to the Cabinet.
She was also picked as the minister in charge of parliamentary affairs, replacing Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim.
Translation: don't think too hard because you'll think yourself out of the death cult.
Contrast that with Christianity or Judaism...where faith illuminates our reason.
Religion of peace.... “piece of what? “.....
Answers a lot of questions
And if you see a Djinn, ask for pork chops and an 8 year old bride.
“Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria reminded federal ministers yesterday against issuing statements based on logic and intellect when it comes to Islam, claiming that the intellect is influenced by desires and subsequently susceptible to the devil.”
When it comes to discussing issues with liberals and trying to use logic and intellect to make your points, you can run into a lot of trouble. No wonder why the Left likes to ally themselves with Islamofascists.

I think the guy has a point.
Yeah, sorta figured that Islam and logic/intellect don’t have much to do with each other.
Sounds about right to me!
