Saravanan concluded by saying, “To Muslims, I say it is unfair to expect non-Muslims like Subashini to go the syariah court even if there is perfect justice in the syariah system because the law gives her the right to pursue her remedy in the civil courts and nowhere else. Muslims can do away with the civil courts if they so wish. They can seek changes to the law to incorporate criminal, contract, property laws, etc. as part of syariah law. What Muslims cannot do is to expect non- Muslims to submit to the syariah court. How would we feel if it was the other way round? How would the Muslims feel if they have to submit to a Hindu court or to any other religious court? We should not do unto others what we do not want others to do unto us. That is the ultimate test of reasonableness. That is the test of a just legal system.” I couldn’t agree more with Zaid. Do not do unto others what you do not want others to do unto you. This golden rule, this ethic of reciprocity, is a fundamental moral principle that is a common thread found in all major The Golden Rule – by the American Painter Norman Rockwell, 1961 world religions, faith and believe systems; flowing from ancient writings to the modern. Simply put, it Baha’i World Faith: extols us to treat others just as we would expect to be treated. “Ascribe not to any soul that which thou wouldst not Among its earliest appearance in English is Earl Rivers’ translation have ascribed to thee, and say not that which thou doest of a saying of Socrates (Dictes and Sayenges of the Philosophirs, not.” “Blessed is he who preferreth his brother before 1477): “Do to others as thou wouldst they should do to thee, himself.” Baha’u’llah and do to none other but as thou would be done to.” “And if thine eyes be turned towards justice, choose thou In many ancient cultures, traditions, and value systems, this for thy neighbour that which thou choosest for thyself.” golden rule has been a cornerstone of its teachings. I had occasion Epistle to the Son of the Wolf to browse the web to see how far and wide this rule is applied and was pleasantly surprised to find that it is indeed a universally Buddhism: extolled principle of human behaviour. I reproduce below some “...a state that is not pleasing or delightful to me, how excerpts from my research, using secondary sources from the could I inflict that upon another?” Samyutta NIkaya v. internet.

  • Keeping Within the Letter of the Law
    The Star Online > Focus Sunday September 27, 2009 Keeping within the letter of the law BY SHAHANAAZ HABIB [email protected] SOME call him smart, hard-working, enterprising and thorough while critics allege he is a ‘kaki bodek’ corrupt and his victories are due to ‘connections’ with judges. In a candid interview, the country’s high profile lawyer, Datuk Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, dismisses such allegations saying these stem from jealousy and that he and his team work like dogs and deserve the results they get in court. He says people only need to read the court judgements to know the truth. Shafee also shares his views on some of his high profile cases and addresses the issue of whether being a Suhakam commissioner and a lawyer for Barisan Nasional puts him in conflict of interest position. ON SUHAKAM, BATU BURUK, INQUIRIES & CONFLICT OF INTEREST Q: As chairman of Suhakam’s law reforms and International Treaties committee, what are the major reforms you are looking at? A: With regards to international treaties, there are a few we have signed and not ratified. There are some we have agreed to enter into but have reserved certain clauses and there are many we have not even considered. We are especially interested to monitor the Convention on the Rights of the Child which is a 1989 document and the Convention on Elimination of All forms of Discrimination Against Women (Cedaw) 1979. We have acceded to Cedaw in 1995 with reservations of certain articles which should be cleared soon. The Women, Family and Community Development Ministry is really looking at it.

    Something's not quite right with Shafee's mission MalaysiaKini.com April 19, 2012 VOXPOP 'Why should sensitive official matters be handled by a private lawyer? And who's paying Najib and Rosmah's legal bill?' 'PM must explain Shafee's secret mission abroad' vox populi small thumbnailJimmy Ng: Using taxpayers' money to pay for personal business matters is a no-no. It is akin to abusing the trust of the rakyat. As rightly pointed out, if it were for ‘sensitive' official matters, why wasn't the attorney-general's services engaged instead? Why go to a private lawyer? Something smells, no, stinks here. Bender: Somebody should appoint a private investigator and follow lawyer Muhammad Shafee Abdullah wherever he goes and document his every move. We have the right to know. PM Najib Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor, have no right to keep things under wraps because the Malaysian government has been implicated in this. What's so urgent that Najib wants this to be settled before the general election? Possibly it has something to do with his doomed premiership. People are intrigued now, there's no way Najib can gloss this one over and pretend like nothing is going on. Keep digging, PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Ismail, and if possible put PKR strategy director Rafizi Ramli on the case as well. Let your Sherlock do his magic on this one. Onyourtoes: Appointed by the government, does it mean paid for by the Treasury? Who is in charge of the Treasury now? Bob Teoh: This is Najib and Rosmah's personal lawyer.
