UMNO ISLAM HARBI.

SIK, Sept 10 –Umno is truly an Islamic party, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Tun Razak said, although it does not use the “Islamic label” in championing the cause of Islam and the country.

He said Umno had actually looked after and raised the living standards of the Muslims by eradicating poverty through various government programmes especially the Felda land schemes.

“In Islam, poverty is akin to sacrilege and for the past 53 years, Umno had strived to eradicate poverty among the Muslims by opening Felda land schemes. Is this not demanded by Islam?” he said when attending a breaking of the fast at Felda Teloi Timor, here today.

He said the Barisan Nasional (BN) government led by Umno had brought development to the country by churning out Muslims who were respected and with the most modern technology and military.

“We need not carry the label ‘development with Islam’ because we have been championing the cause of Islam for a long time and had provided a prosperous life to Muslims because we don’t want the Muslims to be poor and without strength,” he said.

Hujah yang diberikan Najib untuk islamkan umno sangat mudah. Suasananya saolah olah memperbodoh peserta peserta Felda.

Lebih baik katakan ‘saya orang Islam, maka parti umno pun semestinya Islam. Logik yang lebih difahami.

Jika DAP di Pulau Pinang turut membangunkan kebajikan orang orang Islam, maka Islamlah DAP.

Hendak Islam sangat mudah, mengucap sahaja kalimah shahadah “bahawa tiada tuhan yang disembah melainkan Allah dan bersaksi nabi Mohammad saw ialah pesuruh Allah”.

Pada kita yang sudah Islam yang paling penting ialah meningkatkan makam ke mutaqin. Iaitu menunaikan suruhan dan meninggalkan larangan.

Demikian itu juga umno, hendaklah buktikan ia betul betul islamic. Nyatakan dalam perlembagaan bahawa umno memperjuangkan “amal makrof nahi mungkar” , Quran dan Sunnah dijadikan rujukkan.
