PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang has intensified his conflict with DAP by labeling four Malay party leaders as "unstudied" and dismissing their criticisms of his Islamic viewpoints. The four DAP leaders—Syahredzan Johan, Young Syefura Othman, Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali, and Syerleena Abdul Rashid—had previously criticized Hadi's latest Minda Presiden PAS column, titled "The Islamic State and Its Relations with Non-Muslims."
Hadi defended his arguments, asserting they were based on the Quran, hadith, and DAP's own constitutional documents and statements. He claimed disagreements between the two parties stemmed from political considerations rather than a lack of dialogue, citing past attempts to resolve differences. Hadi's remarks come amid a renewed focus on their cooperation under the former Pakatan Rakyat alliance, which dissolved due to deep disagreements over PAS' Islamic agenda and DAP's opposition to several of the Islamist party's policies.
