Facebook user Al Mujahid Arman also has a previous profile picture that shows a man holding an assault rifle with a flag bearing the logo of the terrorist group in the background.
“Halal darahnya untuk di bunuh,” Al Mujahid said in a December 11 comment on a poster posted in the Facebook community called “Bongkar Ajaran Sesat” (Expose Deviant Teachings).
The English translation is: “It’s permissible to shed her blood”.
The poster posted by the Bongkar Ajaran Sesat Facebook community administrator on December 10 showed a picture of Noor Farida and listed 10 teachings it attributed to the spokesman of the pro-moderation group of retired Malay senior civil servants, implying that she was “deviant” by calling her “Bonda Pin”.
Among the teachings it accused Noor Farida of perpetuating was permitting unmarried Muslim couples to be in close proximity (khalwat), permitting Muslims to drink whisky, allowing cross-dressing and protecting the rights of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
Noor Farida told Malay Mail Online in an immediate response that she would lodge a police report on the death threat.
“The police should nab him,” she said.
The former Sessions Court judge has received a backlash from conservative Malay-Muslim leaders over her recent call to review Shariah laws that prohibit khalwat, with some even warning G25 that it may be declared deviant if it continues perpetuating such views. The police are also investigating Noor Farida for sedition over her statement on khalwat laws.
A man also recently threatened on his Facebook page to break into Noor Farida’s home and rape her.
At a recent forum titled “Islam in a Constitutional Democracy”, G25 had said it was setting up a consultative committee to review and to recommend for repeal or amendment unconstitutional state Shariah enactments and laws that violate personal privacy, such as khalwat laws.
Noor Farida, as group spokesman, had said G25 was against criminalising “personal sins” and that intruding a person’s privacy was not Islamic.
National news agency Bernama reported last October Bukit Aman Special Branch Counter Terrorism director SAC Datuk Ayub Khan as saying that the IS used social media to mobilise supporters and to spread their ideology.
A recent Pew Research Centre study showed that 11 per cent of Malaysians hold favourable views of the IS, despite the atrocities committed by the militant group that seeks to form a caliphate.
