Mais to warn DAP MP over surau visit

The Selangor Islamic Religious Council (Mais) will send a warning notice to Serdang Member of Parliament Teo Nie Ching, who was reported to have delivered a “ceramah” or talk in the praying area of Surau Al-Huda in Kajang Sentral, last Sunday.

Mais chairman Datuk Mohamad Adzib Mohd Isa in a statement today that Teo’s action had caused the Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah to get upset and angry to the extent of ordering Mais to take immediate and stern action against the management of the surau.

Hence, Mohamd Adzib said Mais had decided to take over the management of the surau with immediate effect.

“Mais also wants to remind all non-Muslim politicians not to repeat a similar offence, to be sensitive to the feelings of Muslims, and show respect to the Sultan’s decree to uphold the sanctity of mosques and surau in Selangor,” he said.

Local newspapers today quoted a blog, anginperubahan.blogspot.com, that Teo had entered the praying area of the surau during the ceremony to present aid to PAS members last Sunday.

The blog also had Teo’s picture standing in front of the praying room wearing a “kebaya” without a headscarf

Make sure Najib wears a saffron when visiting a Chinese temple, otherwise, the devotees will get upset.

My area we always use the surau for gatherings and even annual community meetings. Muslims & Non muslims are invited and have no problems with the committee. MAIS should stop politicising religion
