Speaking in public PAS boss Hadi made the statement that lying is permissable. No matter how he tries, or other PAS bosses will in future try, to spin that public admission it is there for all to see. Who wants to see a liar in public office or feel unable to accept anything a political leader says when it may be a “permissable lie”?

The question takes on added relevance as PAS are involved in the upcoming bye election. Whether that party in fact drop their support for the BN/UMNO candidate will do nothing to alter the impression among the electorate that PAS support BN, a party of liars, led by Malaysia’s liar in chief “Bossku” Najib

It is doubtful if accepted Muslim scholars support what Hadi had to say about lying. But if there is any expert backing for that proposition then the administration of justice cannot be seen to be effective in any matter involving Muslim parties. That cannot, of course, be so and Hadi’s statement in the matter should be treated with the contempt that it deserves.
