No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" “When you're left wounded on
Afganistan's plains and

the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle

and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur

" “We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”

“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.”
“Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .”
“The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.
Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

Indira Gandhi files to nullify 8 states’ unilateral conversion laws By Hidir Reduan Abdul Rashid
Monday, March 20, 2023

Malaysiakini : Hindu mother M Indira Gandhi has gone to the civil court to strike down the unilateral conversion laws of eight states. The kindergarten teacher and 13 other plaintiffs filed the originating summons at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on March 3. The plaintiffs seek to rely on the landmark 2018 apex court ruling linked to the case of Indira’s Muslim convert ex-husband, who unilaterally converted their three children without her knowledge and consent.

The lawsuit seeks a court declaration to nullify the unilateral conversion laws contained in the state enactments of the Federal Territories, as well as Perlis, Kedah, Malacca, Negeri Sembilan, Pahang, Perak, and Johor. 

Besides Indira (above), 48, the 13 other plaintiffs are NGOs Malaysia Hindu Sangam, its former chairperson S Mohan, Indira Gandhi Action Team chairperson Arun Dorasamy, two alleged victims of unilateral conversions, and eight citizens from the states.

The two purported unilateral conversion victims are Aisyah Muhammad Ali, 26, and Mimi Mastura Abdullah, 33, while the states’ citizens are P Sathesh Kumar, 45 (Perlis), S Puveneshwaran, 46 (Kedah), A Krishnan, 57 (Malacca), R Sentul Kumaran, 43 (Negeri Sembilan), S Sathy Vel Naidu, 61 (Pahang), M Selvaraj, 69 (Perak), S Sivaprakash, 48 (Johor), and M Ranjeet Kumar, 44 (Kuala Lumpur).

Indira, 48, and the other plaintiffs contended that the impugned state enactments are invalid for contravening Articles 12(4) and 75 of the Federal Constitution as well as the 2018 Federal Court ruling regarding unilateral conversion.

Converted as children  

According to a copy of an affidavit in support of the civil action, Aisyah, who is from Ulu Tiram, Johor, contended that she was nine years old when she was unilaterally converted to Islam by her father without her mother’s consent at the Kota Tinggi Islamic Religious Department.

Aisyah also claimed that Mimi Mastura was unilaterally converted when she was 10 by her mother without her father’s consent at the Johor Bahru Islamic Religious Office. Aisyah contended that she and Mimi Mastura neither professed nor practised Islam and followed Hinduism instead.

She referred to the 2018 apex court ruling of M Indira Gandhi V Perak Islamic Religious Department Director and Others, which ruled in the affirmative to the question of “Whether the mother and the father (if both are still surviving) of a child of a civil marriage must consent before a conversion to Islam can be issued in respect of that child?”

Aisyah then listed the eight state enactments that allegedly contravened the Federal Court ruling over the phrase “ibu bapa” of Article 12(4) of the Federal Constitution, which the apex court interpreted as “ibu dan bapa”(mother and father) for the purpose of consent for child religious conversions.

These enactments are: Section 117 of the Administration of the Religion Islam (Perlis) Enactment 2006, Section 80 of the Administration of Islamic Law (Kedah) Enactment 2008, Section 105 of the Administration of the Religion of Islam (Malacca) Enactment 2002, Section 117 of the Administration of the Religion of Islam (Negeri Sembilan) Enactment 2003, Section 103 of the Administration of Islamic Law (Pahang) Enactment 1991, Section 106 of the Administration of the Religion of Islam (Perak) Enactment 2004, Section 117 of the Administration of the Religion of Islam (Johor) Enactment 2003, and the Administration of Islamic Law (Federal Territories) 1993.

“I have been further advised that these state enactments dealing with the unilateral conversion of Islam are unconstitutional and had caused, are causing, or will cause the violation of the plaintiffs’ rights as well as that of the children of every non-Muslim citizen whereby their religion may be changed to Islam,” Aisyah contended.

When contacted, the plaintiffs’ counsel Rajesh Nagarajan said the legal action is set for case management before the Kuala Lumpur High Court this morning.

Kilimanjaro : Bravo. Rather than dealing on a piecemeal basis, this is taking the bull by the horns. While Islam comes under the state jurisdictin and has been widely accepted, the thorn is on the conversion cases, particularly conversion of minors.

If there is to be harmony in this country, just follow the decision of the Federa Court. The case of Lina Joy and the "Allah" issue - the NM have accepted the decision of the Federal Court and moved on. The problem is when you want both the head and tail, then problem lah.

The Perlis Mufti should have not intervened on the Loh's children conversion cases. There will be pushback and and state laws passed on unilateral conversion of children should be reviewed and repealed, in line with the Federal Court decision.

This is no interference with Islamic laws, it is their unwarranted interference in matters beyond their purview. They want to create their own laws using their majority. It doesn't and shouldn't work that way.
