Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng's frequent use of an Arabic verse from the Al-Quran as a term of reference in his governance of the state does not violate Islamic religious ethics.

Indeed, in defending his boss, Deputy Chief Minister I Mohammad Fairus Khairuddin said that Lim's frequent use of the term 'Amar Ma'ruf Nahi Mungkar' (Enjoin what is good and forbid what is evil) was something Muslims should be proud of.
