An Islamic group has admonished the Bible Society of Malaysia (BSM), saying it had gone overboard with its demand for an apology. Persatuan Belia Islam Nasional (Pembina) was responding to BSM president Ng Moon Ming, who wants the Selangor religious authorities to apologise for stamping 30 copies of the Bible with a caveat barring their distribution in Selangor. “BSM has gone overboard because what was done by the Selangor Islamic Affairs Department (Jais) was to defend the faith of Muslims,” Pembina president Ibrahim Mohd Hasan Al-Hafiz said. “He (Ng) should be the one who must ask forgiveness from Muslims,” Ibrahim is quoted as saying in a report published on Ismaweb today. Ibrahim also urged Selangor Menteri Besar Azmin Ali to be firm in defending the principles and importance of Muslims in the state. malaysiakini/news/282850
