Insulting Islam will create tension in the country: DPM WHAT ABOUT OTHER RELIGIONS? Insulting Islam will create tension - Muhyiddin

KUALA LUMPUR: Action that touch Muslim sensitivities must stop or else it will create tension just like what is happening in other Muslim countries.

Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said the action by certain quarters should not happen in a country that is enjoying the peace.

"This shows that there is no deep understanding within society. Muslims do not insult the religion of non-Muslims such as Christianity and Hinduism.

"But non-Muslims are insulting our religion," he said at the breaking of fast with orphans of Rumah Amal Kasih Bestari here yesterday.

The Deputy Prime Minister called for stern action to be taken against the culprits for tarnishing the image and sanctity of Islam.

"The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and the Home Ministry must act fast to prevent a recurrence."

At the function organised by Eden Inc Berhad, Muhyiddin presented donation to 70 orphans. Also present was his wife, Puan Sri Norainee Abdul Rahman.
