Attack against one faith is attack against all faiths

A string of civil society groups in Malaysia have come out to strongly condemn the arson attempts on two suraus in Muar, Johor on 21 January.

We, the undersigned Malaysian civil society groups from different spiritual, cultural and ideological backgrounds, condemn unreservedly in the strongest possible terms the latest arson attacks against two suraus in Muar in the early morning of 21 January.

Any attack on any faith in Malaysia is an attack on all faiths in Malaysia. We express our solidarity with the Sirratulrahim Surau in Kampung Sabak Awor and Parit Beting surau, and to the Malaysian Muslim community at large.
