PAS Youth chief Nasruddin Hasan has insisted that it is forbidden to have any relationship with Jewish entities, regardless if they support the Zionist agenda.

NONE According to Nasruddin ( right in photo ), this is because the situation today is different than during the prophet’s time when trade with Jewish people was allowed.

The Malay daily Sinar Harian reported that Nasruddin’s statement differs with that of PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang and party spiritual leader Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat.

NONE Abdul Hadi and Nik Abdul Aziz ( right ) had recently stated that trade with the Jewish community is allowed, but not if they subscribe to the Zionist agenda.

Nasruddin said in a statement: “The fatwa that all trade with Jews is forbidden is based on economic and political developments in the world.

“This is because every ringgit or dollar channelled to Israel through whatever form of trade will end up paying for bullets used to pierce the hearts of Palestinian Muslims.”

He added that the fatwa was not against the race simply because they were born Jews, but because they are implicated in crimes against Muslims.
