Malaysia, an Islamic State?

There are endless argument of whether Malaysia is an Islamic State by the politicians. Many time the information passed out to the public is misleading and destructive.

In Malaysia Constitution, Malaysia can never be a Islamic State. This is similar to Indonesia, while with 90% Muslim in the country, Indonesia cannot declare itself an Islamic State because of it Republican root.

Then the brainless people just says we should amend the Constitution to make Malaysia an Islamic State. That will be a stupid things to do, it is just like replace the main pillars in your house without any plans and hope that your house will not collapse. The most probably scenario is Malaysia will be break into multiple countries if the Constitution is to be amend to that extend.

Then, the most important question is do you need to live inside an Islamic State to be a good Muslim? Or living in Islamic State to guaranteed your place in heaven? Why must we fighting on the status of the country and not working hard in our own personal life to be a better Muslim?

On the other hand, Malaysia and Indonesia are labeled as Islamic State by the western countries whether you like it or not. In any sense, the Islamic State status is less of matter of politic or constitutional, but rather the spread of Islam itself. So, stop politicking on the Islamic State issue.
