PM: ‘Allah’ issue should be discussed only behind closed doors


SHAH ALAM: The issue relating to the use of the word “Allah” by non-Muslims should not be discussed openly to the extent of causing confusion among Muslims, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He also reiterated that the government’s decision to withdraw its appeal in the court case over the use of the word “Allah” was made after seeking the views of the mufti and referring to the decrees of the Malay rulers.
