Gempar !!! Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong Meninggal Sebagai Islam

dipetik daripada http://wartashubhi.blogspot.com/

Hari ini saya menerima satu email yang amat memeranjatkan. Dalam email tersebut menyatakan bahawa Lim Goh Tong semasa hayatnya telah memeluk agama Islam dan telah meninggalkan waris seorang anak lelaki. Saya siarkan email tersebut dibawah:
(KUANTAN, Friday) The Syariah Court today has today declared that the late
> Tan Sri Lim Goh Tong was a Muslim more than 10 years ago when he passed
> away, in 2007. The Syariah Court also ruled that since no non-Muslim is
> allowed to inherit any part of a Muslim's assets or wealth, the inheritance
> of Lim's property by his non-Muslim children are invalid and unlawful.
>
> "Therefore, the assets should be immediately returned to Tan Sri Lim's
> name, and then redistributed to his Muslim heirs (if any) according to
> Syariah law. If he has no Muslim heir, then the assets shall be given to the
> Islamic authorities and they can do whatever they wis h. The non-Muslim
> children are disinherited." The Syariah Court ruled.
>
> Dato' Zakaria Lim Abdullah, 35, the late Tan Sri Lim's only Muslim child
> and the 20th of his 20 offsprings, is now poised to become the Chairman of
> Genting Group, 1 of Southeast Asia 's richest companies worth RM2 trillion
> as at press time. (He would have inherited only 1/20 of Tan Sri Lim's
> assets if Tan Sri Lim was not declared a
> Muslim.) However, he refused to confirm whether he would stop the gambling
> business of Genting even though it is haram under Islamic law.
>
> "Are you saying that our Hadhari government should refuse to collect taxes
> from gambling, alcohol, pork and other haram businesses?" Dato'
> Zakaria replied, perhaps rhetorically.
>
> Dato' Zakaria has also said that his shall honor his pledge to donate 1/10
> of his newly inherited fortune to Jabatan Agama Islam Pahang an d UMNO in
> equal share if he won the case, made 3 days before the Syariah Court
> decision.
>
> "Business Reasons"
>
> "My late father wanted to keep his conversion secret because he was a
> gambling tycoon, and he did not want to jeopardize his gambling empire or
> make his shareholders lose confidence in Genting," said Dato'
> Zakaria during the hearing in Syariah Court . The Syariah Court felt that
> "this is most likely true because of the huge business implications. It is
> very normal for Chinese to do this. We can accept that."
>
> As to the testimonies of Tan Sri Lim's 19 other offsprings in the Syariah
> Court, who unanimously disputed the alleged conversion, the Syariah Court
> said, "Even though it is 19 to 1, but because the non-Muslim witnesses
> refused to swear on the Qur'an before they testified in court, we could not
> consider their testimonies. In any event, even if they did swear on the
> Qur'an, the non-Muslims would still carry less weight when compared to the
> testimony of 2 Muslim men. It is not about the number, it is about quality
> of the witnesses."
>
> The other witness supporting Dato' Zakaria's claim to have witnessed Tan
> Sri Lim's conversion is Ustaz Abdul Rahman Ganinah Abdullah, 23 year old.
> The Ustaz would have been only 13 year old at that time of the conversion,
> but the Syariah Court said that,"Being a righteous, God-fearing Muslim, we
> have no reason to suspect that the Ustaz told any lie. In any event, he has
> reached the age of puberty at the time (of the conversion) so he was
> qualified to witness the conversion."
>
> "Answer To God" It Depends
>
> The Syariah Court has also ruled that the overwhelming evidence of Tan Sri
> Lim drinking alcohol, praying to pagan idols, celebra ting pagan religious
> festivals, eating pork and gambling in his own Genting Casino and
> generally behaving like a non-Muslim all his life until his death was
> irrelevant. "Once you have converted, you are a Muslim till you die, no
> matter what you did before your death. You will answer to God for all your
> sins."
>
> However, on the same kind of "answer to God" argument made by the
> non-Muslim children that:"By the same logic, the Deceased himself should
> answer to God for concealing his alleged 'conversion' from his family and
> resulting in him not being buried as a Muslim and his assets distributed
> among his non-Muslim children; it's not up to the Islamic Authority to
> insist on his assets being inherited under Islamic law if he, KNOWING THAT
> HIS ASSETS WOULD BE DISTRIBUTED LIKE AN INFIDEL (AND HE MIGHT BURN IN
> HELL), still didn't want to tell his family to bury him as a Mu slim and
> distribute his assets like a Muslim."
>
> The Syariah Court said "you cannot say he must answer to God for
> everything. Sometimes he also has to answer to us, the Islamic Authority and
> Syariah Court. If we say he has to answer to us, then he
> has to. When it comes to God's law, logic has nothing to do with it.
> Why is it so difficult to understand?"
>
> "New Conversion Policy" vs New Economic Policy
>
> The case to declare one of the richest Chinese in the world (at his
> death) as a Muslim was started 2 years ago (8 years after his death),
> 1 month after another non-Muslim Malaysian tycoon's Muslim son was able to
> exclusively inherit his father's global business empire worth RM80 billion
> at that time by proving in Syariah Court that his father had "converted in
> secret," resulting in his mother and all 9 other siblings losing the right
> to inherit any part of the tycoon's wealth, leaving him the sole heir to
> the huge fortune.
>
> There are currently at least 200 more cases of the same nature pending
> before the Syariah Courts nationwide involving deceased non-Muslims who were
> wealthy during their lifetime and left behind a huge personal fortune. Rough

> the Islamic Authorities seeking to disinherit all non-Muslim children...
>
> If all of the cases succeed, it is estimated that the ratio of equity held

> The Perak Mufti, who applauded the Syariah Court 's ruling, said that this

> also designed to achieve the government's goal to redistribute wealth among

>
> "By creating real economic incentives for the dhimmis to become a real

> achieve such noble socio-economic goals of the government.
> Besides, this is more effective because to take money away from living
> people will create a lot of noise, but a dead person will not make any
> noise, right?" He said.
>
> However, it is not clear whether the non-Muslim children would still be

>
> "If that could bring them to Islam, then it would be good, so the Syariah

> converted into Islam earlier perhaps we can still allow them to inherit
> only 30% of what an "early bird" Muslim heir would have been able to get, to

An MCA leader who declined to be named told our reporter:

> This is a very serious issue for all non-muslim Malaysians to think over
