“Mufti Bill needs consultation via constitutional principles for it affects both Muslims and non-Muslims”
ONE of the principles of democracy is the acceptance of synthesis of ideas for the common good of the country.
The moment ideas or thought processes are reduced to a single ideology, they could turn extreme and possibly lead to oppression and injustice.
This is a reason for the existence of written constitutional principles that transcends ideological boundaries.
In this regard the Mufti Bill (Federal Territories) 2024 is a cause of concern.
Even though the Mufti Bill is for Muslim community, Malaysians as whole have to be concerned about the thought patterns and intentions behind the Bill which creates a certain immunity for a position besides adhering to a certain school of thought while rejecting other views that are contrary to its ideological framework.
