Accept gurdwara food with gratitude, Muslims told

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: A sociologist has denounced Muslims who question the halal status of vegetarian food offered by the Sikh community to flood victims.

“Malaysians must reject and condemn such ingratitude and insolence,” said Syed Farid Alatas of the National University of Singapore.

He also said such an attitude was “irreligious and cruel”.

“It may cause confusion among some flood victims who are inclined to accept food aid prepared or given by Sikhs,” he told FMT.

Some gurdwaras in Shah Alam and Petaling Jaya have been providing free vegetarian food to those affected by floods over the weekend.
