Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Conversion to Islam

Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Voluntary conversion of minors. Conversion to other faiths is allowed in Malaysia once one has reached an age of majority. A minor may not convert to another faith without explicit permission of his or her guardian as described in the Guardianship of Infants Act(1961) and the Federal Constitution (Articles 11 (1) and 12 (3) and (4)). This case was tested by Teoh Eng Huat v Kadhi of Pasir Mas Kelantan 1986. Teoh Eng Huat's daughter (then a minor) converted to Islam. ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Christian proselytization

Proselytizing of Muslims by members of other religions is not technically prohibited by federal law. It is however prohibited in most states and can lead to lengthy jail sentences and many strokes of the rotan (whipping). Most Christian and a few other religious groups in Malaysia put a standard disclaimer on literature and advertisements stating "For non-Muslims only". In 2002 the government banned the Bible in Malay (Al Kitab) and in Iban (bap Kudus). Other materials such as books or tapes translated into Bahasa Melayu (local Malay) ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Ownership of dogs

Generally, the Malaysian practice of Islam frowns upon dogs; the rationale being that they are unclean. However, this view is not universal as some have taken the view that the Prophet prayed with dogs around [Al-Nawawi, Sahih Muslim, 3-4:465] and dogs entered the Prophet's mosque. [Ibn Hajar al-‘Asqalani, Fath al-Bari, 1:334]. In 2004, the town council of Subang Jaya made it a pre-condition of dog ownership that anyone applying for a dog license having a Muslim neighbour would be required to seek their "approval" before applying fo ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Azan

The first Azan (also spelt Adhan), known as "subuh" (or dawn), occurs at around 5.30 AM with the exact time drifting throughout the year. Most Malaysian business start work at 9 AM so many non-Muslim Malaysians are still asleep at this time. In 2004 the Bar Council of Malaysia journal "Infoline" carried an article which questioned the need for the Azan as it was disturbing to non-Muslims and not needful. The article was condemned. In December 2004, Minister of Culture, Arts and Heritage Datuk Seri Utama Dr Rais Yatim mentioned ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Places of worship

The government generally respects non-Muslims' right of worship; however, state governments carefully control the building of non-Muslim places of worship and the allocation of land for non-Muslim cemeteries. Approvals for such permits sometimes are granted very slowly. After a violent conflict in Penang between Hindus and Muslims in March 1998, the government announced a nationwide review of unlicensed Hindu temples and shrines. However, implem ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Conversion from Islam

Muslims who wish to convert from Islam face severe obstacles. For Muslims, particularly ethnic Malays, the right to leave the Islamic faith and adhere to another religion is a controversial question, and in practice it is very difficult for Muslims to change religions. The legal process of conversion is unclear; in practice it is very difficult for Muslims to change their religion legally. In 1999 the High Court ruled that secular courts have no jurisdiction to hear applications by Muslims to change religions. According to the ruling, the relig ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Status of religious freedom

Government in general supports Islamic religious establishment and it is the official policy to "infuse Islamic values" into the administration of the country. In May 2001, the government decided not to approve the Falun Gong Preparatory Committee’s application to register as a legal organization. This action is believed to be more related to the governments wish to improve relations with China rather then an attempt to undermine the Falun Gong in favour of Islam. It should be noted that the govern ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Religious demography

Malaysia has a population of just over 23 million. According to government census figures, in 2000 approximately 60.4 percent of the population were Muslim; 19.2 percent practiced Buddhism; 9.1 percent Christianity; 6.3 percent Hinduism; and 2.6 percent Confucianism, Taoism, and other traditional Chinese religions. The remaining percentages were accounted for by other faiths, including animism, Sikhism and the Bahá'í Faith. However, this figure may be misleading as all Malays (the majority race of the country) are required to be Muslim as defined by the Mal ...

Sky Kingdom: Encyclopedia II - Status of religious freedom in Malaysia - Scope of Islamic law in Malaysia

The nation mantains two parallel justice systems in the country (see: Courts of Malaysia). One is the conventional justice system based upon laws gazetted by Parliament. The other is sharia (syaria, Islamic law). Ostensibly syariah courts only have jurisdiction over persons who declare themselves to be Muslims. Consequently, this results in non-Muslims not having legal standing in syariah courts. Where decisions of the syariah court affect a non-Muslim, he or she can seek recourse in the secular courts who ...

The Malaysian government has described the “teapot cult” of Sky Kingdom as one of 22 "heretical" Islamic "sects" or "cults" in Malaysia, which altogether have an estimated 22,800 adherents. Most estimates of the numbers of followers of Sky Kingdom put them at several thousand, though this number would heavily depend on the criteria used for inclusion.

One adherent is from New Zealand. Besides Malaysia, members are also ...
