Mujahid: Don't use mosques to campaign for by-election

All parties involved in the Tanjung Piai parliamentary by-election have been reminded not to make mosques their political arena and place to campaign.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mujahid Yusof Rawa said political activities which often contained negative messages and create division could violate the sanctity of the mosques.

He said this prohibition was in line with the instructions of the Sultan of Johor Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar not to use mosques as political platforms.
