Entering heaven is by Allah’s mercy, not party support, says Mujahid
The Amanah deputy president slams 'baseless' claim that joining or voting for PAS could lead one to heaven.
Amanah deputy president Mujahid Yusof Rawa has clarified that entry into heaven is determined by Allah's mercy, not by supporting any specific political party. Responding to PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan's claim that joining or voting for PAS could lead to heaven, Mujahid questioned the party's association of its political struggle with Allah's mercy.
He accused PAS of narrowing the concept of Allah's mercy by linking it to their support and mocked the party for engaging in slander and lies for political power. Mujahid urged the authorities to take action if the remarks amounted to insulting or exploiting the religion, and called for an apology from Takiyuddin if he did not intend to make such a claim.
Takiyuddin had stated that those who fought to defend Islam and joined PAS would be regarded as martyrs and enter heaven. PAS, led by Takiyuddin as Kota Bharu MP and PN secretary-general, has more than one million members nationwide.
