Tok Guru unhappy with BN rep's attitude

KOTA BAHARU - Kelantan Menteri Besar Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat is disappointed with the attitude of a state's opposition leader who pressure Galas assemblyman Che Hashim Sulaiman to resign due to poor health.

He said they should instead pray for the assemblyman's recovery to continue serving the people.

"But no, they have to create additional stress for him (by urging him to resign)," he told reporters after delivering a Ramadan lecture at the Kota Darulnaim mosque here Sunday.

Pray for recovery instead

He was asked to comment on Kok Lanas assemblyman Alwi Che Mat's statement, urging Che Hashim to step down from his post due to health factors.

The PAS spiritual leader said, as Muslims, such statements were frowned upon and that it was better to pray for the recovery and well-being of individuals who were ill.

"I have been ill myself, but thank God I am still able to carry out my duties today," he told Bernama.
