ALLAH IS EXCLUSIVE RIGHT OF MUSLIMS ============================= THE SULTAN OF KEDAH TUANKU ABDUL HALIM MUADZAM SHAH SAID THE USE OF WORD ALLAH WAS THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHT OF MUSLIMS, AND SHOULD BE RESPECTED. THE RULER SAID THERE SHOULD BE A PROHIBITIONON ITS USED BY PEOPLE OF OTHER RELIGIONS. CONFUSION AND CONTROVERSY CAN BE AVERTED IF THERE IS ADHERENCE TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE LAW AND JUDICIAL DECISIONS, THE SULTAN, WHO IS ALSO THE YANG DI PERTUAN AGONG, SAID YESTERDAY. THE SULTAN ADVISED ALL COMMUNITIES TO RESPECT THE EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS OF MUSLIMS TO MAINTAIN THE LONG ESTABILISHED STABILITY AND HARMONY. HE SAID UNITY HAD BEEN NURTURED THROUGH A MATURE PROCESS AND HAD BECOME A FORCE FOR THE STABILITY AND HARMONY ENJOYED BY THE PEOPLE. AS SUCH , I URGE THAT RELIGIOUS ISSUES AND RACIAL SENSITIVITIES WHICH HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE A THREAT ( TO UNITY ) BE AVOIDED BESIDES ADHERING TO THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION AND THE STATE CONSTITUTION. IN THE CONTEXT OF A PLURALISTIC SOCIETY, RELIGIOUS SENSITIVITIES ESPECIALLY RELATED TO ISLAM AS THE RELIGION OF THE FEDERATION SHOULD BE RESPECTED, HE SAID IN HIS SPEECH READ OUT BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE KEDAH COUNCIL OF REGENCY TAN SRI TUNKU ANNUAR SULTAN BADLISHAH. SULTAN ABDUL HALIM ADVISED MUSLIMS TO REJECT BELIEFS OTHER THAN THAT OF SUNNAH WAL- JAMAAH SO AS TO SAFEGUARD THEIR INTEREST.
