KUALA LUMPUR (Arrahmah.com) - Minister of Kelantan, Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat issued a statement one day after the Americans broadcast the news on the martyrdom of Sheikh Osama Bin Laden.

Here is Nik Abdul Aziz's statement:

If you really think that Osama Bin Laden actually was killed by U.S. troops as announced by President Barack Obama last night (05/02/2011), then I as a Muslim pray for mercy and forgiveness from Allah for Osama Bin Laden who is my brother in Islam.

This is demanded by Islam when receiving news about fellow Muslim brother's death. If he dies in a state of faith, pleading prayers were offered by forgiveness to them from another Muslim brother.

As for Osama Bin Laden's involvement with acts of terrorism, I leave everything to God because he is still not proven yet, but only the widespread of such propaganda which was pioneered by the United States. If it is true he was involved with acts of terrorism, of course I do not support terrorism. However, bin Laden's involvement with acts of terrorism remains a vague news that could not be validated, but the United States own involvement in terrorism has been proven.

This is obvious with the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq which had destroyed the two countries with the aim of seeking weapons of mass destruction that could not be found until today. What the United States has done to act against Israel's evil doings in the land of Palestine? Not only the Americans did not act, but instead the most hardliner Americans support Israel. Indeed, if bin Laden is considered as a terrorist, then Israel is more appropriately known as terrorists, and their supporters, the United States, also can never escape from the same stigma.

This is what I said to the Ambassador of the United States who came to my office on 28 April 2011, that any pair slippers a master should not be deprived, let alone a sovereign country like Palestine, and similarly the Israelis do not have rights to seize Palestine.

As for those who say that the world is more safe with the death of Osama, I consider the statement as inaccurate and intended only to manifest themselves as American lackeys. If the world is more safe with the death of bin Laden, whether the world will also be more happy with being American?

So, yours respectfully.
