PUTRAJAYA, Aug 24 — The Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) (JPMI) and its affiliated agencies will collaborate with Himpunan Gerakan Islam Malaysia (HGIM) to implement initiatives aimed at fostering a better understanding of Islam and empowering preachers who advocate a message of moderation in the religion.
Its minister, Datuk Mohd Na’im both parties had agreed in principle to work together in enhancing Islamic affairs in the country, in terms of developing natural disposition (fitrah), cultivating a culture of Islamic moderation, and emphasising the value of balance and moderation (wasatiyyah) through community-involved seminars and conventions.
“We also plan to enhance Islamic media content to help advance society, and we’re glad HGIM wants to be a strategic partner in future Islamic affairs development,” he told the media after a meeting with HGIM today.
HGIM comprises four major dakwah organisations, namely Persatuan Wadah Pencerdasan Umat Malaysia (Wadah), Pertubuhan Ikram Malaysia (Ikram), Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia (Abim), and Pertubuhan Himpunan Lepasan Institusi Pendidikan Malaysia (Haluan).
Mohd Na’im said that the focus on Islam Wasatiyyah or advocating for a balanced community was in line with the department’s programme to strengthen Islamic affairs. It underscores the importance of respecting Islamic institutions and promoting individual well-being.
“There is a need for everyone’s support for nation-building efforts, especially in realising the Malaysia Madani agenda,” he added. — Bernama

Protect them from the delusion that everyone else outgroup will go to h*ll. What else could be more damaging to young children in the long run, if not this kind of parasitic mindframe infestation?

No one knows whether hell or heaven exist.
To know the other dimension, you must die, which is a mandatory requirement.

Yes, DM. Children should only be taught to be humane, productive and down-to-earth.

As a non Muslim I have no business or need to understand Islam.
Let me and my children practice our religion freely without any restriction or back door brainwashing tactic like in school subjects.
