I'll try to shine some light upon why I said so. Keep in mind I'm not the most right person to talk about this topic but alas I would like to pitch in my thoughts as well. And if there's anything wrong w my explanation, do point it out. I'm still learning https://twitter.com/mnh48com/status/1280010814095675394
On how to convey my thoughts exactly in words. I always run in troubles because of my difficulty to speak in same line of thoughts of mine thus I am sorry if it's weird or whatnot.
Now back to your statement. I'll restate this, Malaysia uses Islam as the official religion w/out stopping others from practising their religions. As such, Islam has been applied and practiced in the norms freely whether it is visible or not.
And so far Islamic beliefs does not hinder anyone, except when it comes to LGBT and their representations. You said 'strict'. Do excuse me, but do you said so just because it is against your beliefs? That Islam is constricting YOUR human rights?
I don't have a grudge upon LGBTs, heck before this I don't even care because to me, they are still human. There's nothing that should rule them out as such.
Except when they are stepping out of their lines.
Ikea is indirectly challenging us, atleast those who keep Islam in their hearts and live by it through the poster and the bag. Action speaks louder than words, no? By stirring this up, they are triggering a deeper movement, the rock solid foundation of Malaysia standing by Islam.
The reason why the original statement is issued because of how daring the poster is. Since it sounds like a challenge, normally we do rise up against it.
Again I apologise if there's any mistake or any lacking of whatever in this thread. You are welcomed to issue your arguments and so do I. Thank you for your bravery and letting us understand your side of the story.
