Jais probes viral post alleging Muslim took part in non-Islamic religious ritual

The Selangor Islamic Religious Department is investigating a viral post about a Muslim alleged to have performed non-Islamic rituals, violating Islamic law.

Investigations are under the Syariah Criminal Offences (Selangor) Enactment 1995, although no confirmation has been made regarding the incident.

Jais is examining the post's authenticity and will investigate the issue thoroughly to determine its jurisdiction for further action.

SHAH ALAM, Oct 11 — The Selangor Islamic Religious Department (Jais) is investigating a viral post concerning an individual believed to be Muslim who allegedly performed rituals of another religion in violation of Islamic law.

Jais director Datuk Mohd Shahzihan Ahmad said investigations had begun under Sections 4 and 10 of the Syariah Criminal Offences (Selangor) Enactment 1995, which cover acts of demonstrating worship in ways that contravene Islamic law and bringing Islam into contempt, according to a report by Bernama.

“So far, Jais has not been able to confirm that the act was committed by the individual concerned during the Thaipusam celebration at Batu Caves, Selangor, as claimed in the viral post.

“We also do not rule out the possibility that the post involved superimposed editing or artificial intelligence (AI),” he said in a statement today.

Mohd Shahzihan said Jais would investigate several aspects of the case, including the location of the incident, more thoroughly and urgently.

“This is to establish Jais’ jurisdiction to take further action under the laws in force.

“Matters concerning the Islamic faith of Muslims in Selangor are taken seriously, and every piece of information or complaint will be investigated, with action taken professionally, firmly, swiftly, accurately and fairly,” he said.

Yesterday, the media reported that the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) was taking action with the relevant authorities over the circulation of several video recordings allegedly showing a Muslim individual participating in non-Islamic religious rituals.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Dr Zulkifli Hasan was reported as saying that his department had taken note of the recordings, which were also linked to alleged acts of worship and the use of certain mantras.

莎阿南，10月11日讯——雪兰莪州伊斯兰宗教局（Jais）正在调查一则在网上疯传的帖子，帖子中一名据信是穆斯林的男子涉嫌违反伊斯兰教法，举行其他宗教的仪式。

据马新社报道，雪兰莪州伊斯兰教法委员会主任拿督莫哈末·沙兹汉·艾哈迈德表示，已根据1995年《雪兰莪州伊斯兰教法刑事犯罪法令》第4条和第10条展开调查，这两条涵盖以违反伊斯兰教法的方式进行宗教活动以及蔑视伊斯兰教的行为。

“到目前为止，Jais 还无法证实该行为是否如疯传的帖子中所述，是由相关人员在雪兰莪州黑风洞的大宝森节庆祝活动期间实施的。

“我们也不排除该帖子涉及后期编辑或人工智能（AI）的可能性，”他今天在一份声明中说。

莫哈末·沙兹汉表示，沙兹汉将更加彻底、更加紧急地调查此案的多个方面，包括事发地点。

“这是为了确立 Jais 的管辖权，以便根据现行法律采取进一步行动。”

据报道，总理府（宗教事务）部长祖基菲里·哈桑博士表示，他的部门已经注意到这些录音，这些录音还与所谓的宗教仪式和使用某些咒语有关。
