00:00Kita sebagai orang Islam sesekali akan memastikan bahawa PAS akan terus menunggak agama dalam perjuangan kita menegakkan agama Islam di
00:09Malaysia ni, insyaAllah.
00:11Kedah PAS Youth Chief Ilyas Ahmad says PAS will continue championing Islam as part of its political struggle to uphold
00:18the religion in Malaysia.
00:20Speaking at the Wing's 67th Muktamar, Ilyas hit back at criticism from DAP and Amanah leaders over PAS's focus on
00:28religion.
00:29He said several DAP and Amanah leaders were increasingly bold in belittling PAS, accusing the party of being like the
00:37Taliban, religiously obsessed and exploiting religion.
01:00Ilyas argued that as Muslims, PAS members would naturally champion Islam and rejected criticism of the party's religious focus.
01:09He said Kedah PAS Youth supported reconciliation between PAS and UMNO, claiming Pakatan Harapan had failed to defend Islam and
01:17the Malay community since taking federal power.
01:19Ilyas cited the federal court's August 12 ruling rejecting Kedah's attempt to overturn a decision involving licences for pool betting
01:27and lottery operators.
01:29He also pointed to the federal court's 2024 decision, striking down 16 provisions of Kelantan's Sharia criminal enactment as evidence
01:37of what he described as the weakening of Islamic law.
01:40Ilyas further criticised what he called the erosion of Muslim values on university campuses, citing a music festival at Universiti
01:49Kebangsaan Malaysia and other events at Universiti Malaya.
01:53He maintained that these developments showed Islam was being pushed into an undignified position and argued that PAS UMNO unity
02:00was needed to remove PH from power at the next general election.
