MEMORANDUM

To :YAB DATO'SERI ABDULLAH AHMAD BADAWI, PRIME MINISTER OF MALAYSIA.
From :CONCERNED CITIZENS OF SABAH,MALAYSIA.
Date :4th.March.2009

SUBJECT: APPEAL TO RECONSIDER THE USE OF THE WORD "ALLAH".


Yang Amat Berhormat,

WE,the concerned citizens of Sabah,are steadfast and guided by the belief
in fairness and social justice and the provisions in the Federal
Constitution of Malaysia that allows the freedom of religion of it's
citizens.The word "ALLAH" has always been used by the Christians to refer
to "God" in their publications and preaching without restrictions and
knowledge that Christians in other Muslim countries such as Indonesia and
Arabia,etc without any problem and the belief in the universality of the
word "ALLAH".

WE, humbly appeal to the conscience and the wisdom of YAB to reconsider
the decision of the Home Ministry so that we can continue to belief in
the fairness of the government.

WE , the concerned citizens of Sabah Malaysia , humbly appeal that the
Christians be allowed to use the word "ALLAH" in Bahasa Malaysia to refer
to "GOD" in English

    • The greatest last finale you can do Sir,is allow the peace of mind of all Christian Malaysians to freedom and expression of our religion.

    • I agree that Allah, the name for the chief of the pagan deities, has been in use as a term for God, long before Christianity and Islam, and anyone who feels comfortable with the term should be allowed to use it.

    • Is there exclusivity to the usage of the word "Allah"to anyone?Yasser Arafat was Muslim but his wife a Christian.PM Abdullah Badawi is Muslim,Jeane is a Muslim convert,and her parents are Catholics.So what seem to be the problem?

    • If God is Allah and Allah is God and He creates everything, He cannot be the God or Allah only for a group of His creation. He cannot be only for the Malaysian Muslims

    • Allah was used by Christians and other faiths WAY before Islam ever existed. How can the Fed Govt insist it belongs to Islam alone? Such narrow minded people.

    • The word Allah is only a terminology. Why the Muslims in Malaysia so fussy about it. It is something like "kadavul" in Tamil. My advise to thr Muslims in Malaysia, Please understand the difference amongst these words: Melayu, Islam, UMNO, Arab. You all tend to mix up these words for same meaning and this is an ignorant.
