PETALING JAYA: Perlis Mufti Datuk Dr Asri Zainul Abidin (pic) has hit out at the 19 Malaysians who initiated legal proceedings against the Government and four others to get a court order to declare preacher Dr Zakir Naik a threat to national security.

"What proof is there that he is a threat? Are they sensitive because there were Hindus who converted to Islam? Are there other reasons?" said Mohd Asri on his official Facebook page DrMAZA.com Wednesday.
