Kelantan Ulama expresses support for Anwar's leadership
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim PUTRAJAYA (July 20): Deputy chairman of Jabhah Pondok Kelantan Syeikh Wazir Che Awang Al-Makki Hafizahullah has expressed full support for the leadership of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and called for the continuation of the Anwar-led MADANI government. He said the religious scholars would continue to support the Prime Minister and were ready to assist in overcoming any challenges during his administration. 'We fully support the leadership of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. God willing, we stand behind him. 'All the obstacles and challenges in this country can be overcome. Malaysia can be saved, and the government under Datuk Seri's leadership can be preserved,' he said when speaking at the 'Malaysia Bermunajat 2025' programme at Putra Mosque here last night. The programme, attended by Anwar and thousands of congregants, aimed to enliven the culture of 'munajat' (supplication) and appreciation of knowledge as the foundation for uniting the ummah and building a society grounded in Malaysian MADANI values. Meanwhile, Syeikh Wazir said frequent changes in government within short periods were not encouraged in Islam, and suggested that a good administration be maintained for up to 10 years so that the people could benefit from it. 'In Malaysia, we see governments changing every five years, two years, or even after one year, resulting in shifting policies, the decline of religious schools, and a decline in all areas, (including) the economy. This is not the Islamic way,' he said. Yesterday, Anwar urged Muslims to continue defending the legacy of Islamic scholarship and strengthening the relationship between religious scholars (ulama) and leaders (umara) in facing the challenges of the modern era, including the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalisation. – Bernama

PM Anwar urges Muslims to safeguard Islamic scholarship legacy
PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has urged Muslims to uphold the legacy of Islamic scholarship and strengthen ties between religious scholars (ulama) and leaders (umara) to navigate modern challenges, including artificial intelligence (AI) and digitalisation. He stressed that technological progress must be grounded in ethics, values, and religious understanding, which have long been the foundation of Muslim strength. 'If we do not move in tandem and lack strong enlightenment, there is no guarantee of security,' he said during the 'Malaysia Bermunajat 2025' programme at the Putra Mosque, yesterday. Anwar highlighted Malaysia's leadership in AI development but warned against adopting Western systems without ethical foundations. 'Without values, we become mere consumers,' he added. The event, themed 'Uniting the Ummah Through Supplication and Knowledge,' aimed to promote supplication (munajat) and knowledge as pillars of unity under Malaysia MADANI. The Prime Minister also praised pondok institutions for preserving Islamic faith and culture during colonialism. 'Had there been no pondok schools, we might have lost our religious identity,' he said. He encouraged pondok students to embrace modern education, including TVET and AI, while staying rooted in Islamic teachings. Anwar called for a revival of Islamic knowledge in Quranic studies, hadith, fiqh, and governance to maintain historical and cultural identity. He noted Malaysia's role in uniting global ulama to guide the ummah with wisdom and respect. The event featured Pakistani scholar Maulana Tariq Jamil, who emphasised spiritual connection and community responsibility. - Bernama
