Malaysia: 部落客抗議宗教管制
出自Taipedia
Malaysian bloggers are irked this week with the treatment an young singer Noor Idayu Abd Moin received from a state religious department tasked with the enforcement of islamic law (Shariah). Shariah laws are enforced at the state level and not at a federal level in Malaysia and they only apply to Muslims in this multi-religious country.
州宗教部以回教戒律(Shariah)處置一名年輕歌手Noor Idayu Abd Moin惹惱了馬來西亞部落客。回教戒律在馬來西亞是以州的層級實施而不是聯邦的層級且在此宗教多元的國家中僅施於穆斯林。
Journalist Nuraina A Samad explains
On Tuesday, after her performance at an entertainment outlet in Sunway City, she was among Muslims caught by the Perak Religious Department (JAIP) when its officers carried out a raid.
She was singled out because she was wearing a sleeveless top which the officers found to be indecent.
星期二,結束在Sunway City市一家娛樂暢貨中心的表演後,在吡叻(霹靂)州宗教部 (JAIP) 官員突襲下,她在一群穆斯林中被抓走。
僅她被捕,只因為她穿了官員認為是下流的無袖背心
According to Siti Noor Iday, JAIP officers accused her of exposing her body and encouraging immoral activities. The officers refused to touch her id card, calling it unclean. They ridiculed her about her occupation as an entertainer. They also gave her a breathanalyzer test to prove that she was consuming alcohol but the test came out negative.
據Siti Noor Iday所述,吡叻(霹靂)州宗教部官員控訴她暴露身體並鼓動不道德的活動。這些官員們拒絕檢查其身份,直叫她 不潔之人。他們譏諷她從事藝人的工作。他們還對她進行酒測以證明她有喝酒,但結果是否定的。
Nuraina adds
If the religious authorities continue to humiliate people they have rounded up, they can be sure that they are making it so easy for people — Muslims and non-Muslims alike — to think so poorly of Islam and the enforcers of the Syariah. 如果宗教部當局繼續羞辱其所補的人民。他們可以確信的是,其使人民(穆斯林和非穆斯林)更加容易去思考伊斯蘭和回教戒律的不好。
Malaysian expatriate Unspun, currently living in Indonesia, says these kind of behavior by the authorities is one of the reason why some Malaysians “choose to live away from Malaysia”
移居國外的馬來西亞人,現在住在印尼的Unspun說當局這些舉動就是讓一些馬來西亞人「選擇移居國外」的原因之一
Shanghai Stephen is urging the crown prince of Perak state to step in. The royals in Malaysia are largely ceremonial but they are widely respected in Malaysia.
Shanghai Stephen力勸吡叻(霹靂)皇子表態介入。雖然皇室在馬來西亞多為形式上的,但他們仍受到廣泛地尊敬。
I seriously think my good Raja Muda of Perak, His Royal Highness, Raja Dr. Nazrin Shah, quickly step in and stop this “wanton judgement passing” by these self-appointed “saints”. Chill JAIP….this is 2007 and correct me if I’m wrong, and with all due respect, is this the “dark age of Islam”? 我鄭重地認為我善良的Raja Muda
Ahiruddin Attan at Rocky’s Bru writes about the double standards with moral policing
Did Siti Nor Idayu (pic) expose her body and encourage immoral activities? I wasn’t there so I won’t know. But I am tired of this Apartheid. Some Muslims in this country derive pleasure from shaming other Muslims and you’d note that these happen only to the lower caste Muslims. They are never going to order the Muslim directors in Malaysia Airlines to appear before the Syariah court for allowing liquor to be flown and consumed on board, for example. Or are they?
Desidereta writes a comment on Ahiruddin’s above post and warns Malaysians against giving a free reign to religious authorities interfering in people’s lives
if malaysians of all creeds, colours and ethnic origins are not careful, certain self-APpointed groups will one day rush into our living rooms to conduct a house search in the name of local council’s rules and regulations. Malacca started off with CM-snactioned Mat Skodeng, FT Religious Dept followed with similar cloned snoops in Putra Jaya; now the Little Napoleons in this little episode “bullying a singer” are again testing te waters to seek out less-privileged Malaysain strata society to victimise.
The term Mat Skodeng here refers to undercover spies recruited by the religious departments to inform on offenders.
