Selangor PAS held a solat hajat (intercessory prayer) in Shah Alam tonight to pray for its victory in the state, as well as the destruction of Pakatan Harapan.
Selangor PAS leader Ahmad Dusuki Abd Rani, who led the prayer, likened the upcoming confrontation in the 14th general election (GE14) to the Prophet Muhammad-era Battle of the Trench, when a confederation of pagan Arabs from Mecca laid siege to Medina.
Among the doa (supplications) he read out after the prayers include:
"O Allah, we beseech thee, for so long Selangor has been ruled in a godless way. Give PAS the chance to rule Selangor, give us the chance to show the beauty of your religion on this blessed land.
"This congregation has been betrayed by those who stole our seats O Allah, how they need to be punished. Verily you are the best to punish them.
"Turn the evil Pakatan into a coalition that has no strength, just as you routed the (Arab pagan) confederate soldiers, such is what we will face soon.
"Destroy the Pakatan confederate soldiers, destroy their strength, divide them... Uphold Islam, this is our wish," Dusuki said.
He had led a congregation of some 2,000 people to mark the tenth year of PAS in the Selangor government.
PAS has severed all ties with its former allies PKR an DAP, who are now part of Pakatan Harapan together with Bersatu and PAS-splinter group Amanah.
The Islamist party has Amanah of stealing their seats instead of surrendering it when defecting.
It, however, remains part of the Selangor state government to continue the mandate given in 2013.
During the Battle of the Trench in 627 AD, the 10,000-strong Meccan confederate army vastly outnumbered Prophet Muhammad's forces of 3,000.
However, trenches dug around Medina had rebuffed the Meccan attack, and the 30-day siege eventually ended in victory for the prophet. -Mkini
