PETALING JAYA: Twenty-three people, including women and children, were arrested by Selangor Islamic Religious Department officers at a Shia centre at Gombak last night.

Those arrested were brought to the Islamic complex at Gombak and were told that they were being investigated under shariah law for opposing the fatwa on the practice of Shi’ism, the sources told FMT. Shia, with a substantial following in Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Bahrain, Lebanon and several parts of Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Pakistan, is the second largest branch of Islam.

Yesterday, the minister in charge of Islamic affairs, Mujahid Yusof Rawa, distanced himself from a Friday sermon prepared by Jais that supposedly attacked Shia Muslims.
