SELAMA: Authorities including the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim) will take appropriate action in curbing the spread of Syiah and mu’tazilah teachings detected in the digital Quran application, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin.

“Jakim or any enforcement authority will definitely take action,” he told reporters at the Larut Perikatan Nasional Aidilfitri Open House at the Selama District Council Hall here.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Senator Datuk Idris Ahmad was reported to have said that Jakim had detected Quran applications that contain deviant interpretations, including the influence of mu’tazilah and Syiah teachings.
