Article 11/IFC round two
Different players, same purpose:
Islamist party PAS jumped on the bandwagon of Islamic groups against the Bar Council’s forum entitled “Conversion to Islam: Article 121 (1A) of the Federal Constitution, Subashini and Sharmala Revisited” today…Among the issues to be discussed at the forum include conversions to Islam without spouses’ knowledge, conversions of children without dual parents’ consent and other inheritance issues.
It may have different players but this reminds me smack in the face of the Article 11/IFC initiative not very long ago. Just as I have opposed it in 2006, I will do so once again. These people never do give up in trying to undermine the status of Islam in the country, do they?
