  "account": "Bersatu MP Suhaimi Abdullah criticized PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang for likening the confidence and supply agreement (CSA) between the government and opposition MPs to the Dajjal's deception, stating that such a comparison is unfortunate and detrimental to national unity. Suhaimi, who signed the CSA alongside six other Bersatu MPs, questioned how a nation could foster unity if opposition MPs were labeled Dajjal. He admitted that his children had questioned him about the Dajjal, to which he responded that he was looking into it. The Dajjal is a figure in Islam, regarded as one of the major signs of the Day of Judgment, often referred to as the anti-Christ. Hadi argued that the CSA is akin to the Dajjal because power is no longer seen as a trust for the benefit of all, but as a way to coerce others and maintain government control. The agreement would grant access to constituency development funds that government MPs have had for four years and enforces reforms for the government, such as limiting the prime minister's term and separating the roles of the attorney-general and public prosecutor.",
