IPOH: The Islamic Development Malaysia Department (Jakim) will file a report with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) over a TikTok video that calls on the public to pray for misfortune to befall leaders, including the Prime Minister as well as their supporters.

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Datuk Mohd Na'im Mokhtar said Jakim will leave it to the MCMC to investigate.

"We will ask the MCMC to review the content and it will be up to authorities to take any further action," he told a press conference after officiating the north zone-level "Jelajah Madani Ulama dan Umara" programme here on Saturday (July 13).

Mohd Na'im said that such actions are contrary to Islamic teachings, adding that any differences in opinion should be expressed in a courteous manner through the right means. – Bernama
