Dr Sam - Preferred, Prime Minister. (English)

Frankly, it is very unfair to judge Dr. Shamsuri's ability to lead the country, as a person with many shortcomings, even when listening to the comments of a few professors, with knowledge of national politics. These Professors ... who commented on his authority as if there was a weighing of values ​​that sometimes brought laughter - why so Jurassic your mentality? Shame on you...an uncalled form of comments, ever heard, to look down upon Dr. Sam is a profound display of "under the shell mentality - "katak bawah tempurung". So with the subtle labelling of PAS as a fanatic, religiously political entity. Enough of stereotyping PAS for not being progressive and religiously conservative. Do explore the facts and get out, Mr. Professors, from your cave mentality. Just to ponder: take time to read the yearly indicator of 500 Muslims leaders, and many more are from an Islamist background. The most notable among them is the Islamic leader, Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz (c. 680–720), or Umar II, who was the eighth Umayyad caliph (717–720) known for his extreme piety, justice, and swift, sweeping reforms that brought unprecedented stability and prosperity to the empire. Often called the "fifth rightly guided caliph," he reversed Umayyad excesses by living simply, reforming taxation, and fostering religious tolerance

For me, Dr. Sam is the best choice for the future of Malaysia. Honestly, among the political leaders in Malaysia. From what I see, Dr. Sam has the most rounded personality to lead the nation. Apart from his own leadership characteristics, Terengganu also ranks 5th in GNP among the states in Malaysia. Frankly, his leadership authority and dedication are something that comes "naturally" with his decades in the aerospace engineering sector. If you want to compare with KJ and RR, DR. Sam is far ahead in all aspects of leadership. Dr. Sam's leadership decorum is far superior to that of almost all Malaysian politicians. No way on any forms of comparative personality, RR and KJ both do not have the genuine acumen of a good, wise, and premier decorum. Maybe in the next 2 decades. Dr. Sam is much preferred. His full biography is as follows: 

Ahmad Samsuri bin Mokhtar (Jawi: احمد سمسوري بن مختر; born 16 November 1970) is a Malaysian politician, aerospace engineer, and lecturer who has served as the 15th Menteri Besar of Terengganu, Member of the Terengganu State Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Ru Rendang since May 2018, Member of Parliament (MP) for Kemaman since December 2023, and Group Chairman for Terengganu Incorporated (TI Group).[2] He held a brief stint as the 18th Leader of the Opposition from May to June 2026 before being succeeded by Hamzah Zainudin during the RESET Malaysia Convention.[3] He is a member of the Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), a component party of the Perikatan Nasional (PN) coalition. He has served as the 2nd Chairman of PN since February 2026 and the Vice President of PAS since June 2019

Ahmad Samsuri was born in Jerteh, Besut, Terengganu, Malaysia, on 16 November 1970. He went to Sekolah Menengah Sains Sultan Mahmud, Kuala Terengganu from 1983 until 1988.[8] He received a BEng (Hons) in Mechanical and Materials Engineering from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in 1993,[8] a Master of Science in Combustion and Energy from the Center for Combustion Studies, University of Leeds in 1996,[9] and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Aeroengine Ignition and Combustion, High Altitude Engine Failure from the School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds in 2001

Ahmad Samsuri is an aerospace engineer by profession. Prior to his involvement in politics, he previously worked as a Quality Assurance (QA) engineer for Hitachi Consumer Products in 1993-1994, as a research officer in the Faculty of Engineering, USM in 1994-1995, as the head of department (HOD) of the Department of Aerospace Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, UPM in 2003-2008, where he also served as a lecturer (2001–2006) and an associate professor (2003–2008) for UNISEL.

Political analysis writers talk about the "Leadership Issue" being increasingly defined by influence, impact, and capability rather than by hierarchy or formal tenure. While traditional organizational structures rely on top-down authority, modern leadership often operates as a network where individuals at any level—regardless of age—can lead by connecting with others, fostering collaboration, and driving change. Is the existing leadership really that great? I don't even feel like commenting.

Open-minded in the analysis of how effective leadership goes beyond hierarchy and why young leaders can be so effective, the equity of Influence vs. Authority. Effective leaders generate impact through personal credibility, communication, and trust, rather than relying solely on the power vested in a position. As is the case today, there is power - I love it!!

Modern organizations are increasingly seen as “lattices” rather than “ladders,” allowing leadership to flow horizontally and across functions, rather than just up and down. Shared responsibilities and leadership roles are fluid, changing according to projects or specific expertise required, which encourages faster decision-making and innovation.

Young leaders, in particular, often bring attributes that challenge conventional approaches and bring significant value to an organization. Young leaders often bring fresh perspectives and are quicker to adopt new technologies, methodologies, and trends. Younger generations are often highly motivated by a sense of purpose and “making an impact,” which can enhance employee engagement and organizational culture.

Active Collaboration: Rather than working in isolation, young leaders often prioritize transparent communication and, in many cases, are more accessible to their teams than their traditional predecessors, often exhibiting high energy and a willingness to challenge the status quo.

Leadership effectiveness often goes beyond conventional expectations by focusing on: Servant Leadership. Shifting from “what can you do to help me” to “what can I do to help you” builds trust and empowers teams.

The best leaders don’t just create followers; they nurture and empower their team members to take ownership and lead themselves. While effective, young leaders face different challenges that organizations must address: The pressure to prove themselves can cause young leaders to choose to commit.

Dr. Sam, at an energetic age, may face skepticism from older colleagues, requiring them to build credibility through demonstrated results.

Effective leadership is a behavioral competency that can be developed, not just a career stage. As organizations face rapid change, the ability to nurture, empower, and support other leaders—regardless of their age or position—is essential to the long-term success of nation-building.  Dr. Sam - Preferred.

Akhir-akhir ini, terdapat banyak podcast dan pelbagai bentuk polemik, terutamanya di media sosial.

 

Menunjukan dan menzahirkan kebencian terhadap Muslim dan Islam.

Assalamualaikum, umat Islam telah menghadapi penindasan berterusan sepanjang sejarah dan pada masa kini dalam pelbagai bentuk, daripada penganiayaan awal dan pembunuhan beramai-ramai berskala besar kepada diskriminasi kontemporari dan Islamofobia sistemik. Walaupun begitu, ramai dalam masyarakat mendapati kekuatan dalam iman mereka, ikatan komuniti, dan advokasi untuk keadilan, mempercayai janji illahi bahawa kebenaran (Islam) akhirnya akan menang.

Bentuk Penindasan Sejarah dan Kontemporari;

Penganiayaan Awal: Pada zaman awal Islam di Makkah, Nabi Muhammad  dan pengikutnya menghadapi penganiayaan yang teruk, termasuk penyeksaan fizikal, boikot ekonomi, dan pengasingan sosial oleh puak Quraisy yang memerintah. Para syuhada pertama dalam Islam, seperti Sumayya binti Khabbab dan suaminya Yasir, dibunuh kerana iman mereka.

Pembunuhan Bersejarah dan Pemakaman Secara Paksa: Sepanjang sejarah, umat Islam telah menjadi sasaran pembunuhan beramai-ramai dan pemakaman secara paksa, seperti semasa Inkuisisi Sepanyol atau konflik mazhab tertentu.

Krisis Hak Asasi Manusia Zaman Moden: Situasi kontemporari melibatkan pelanggaran hak asasi manusia yang teruk, termasuk apa yang dianggap oleh kerajaan banyak negara, dan kumpulan hak asasi manusia sebagai pembunuhan beramai-ramai yang berterusan terhadap Muslim Palestina, Rohingya di Myanmar dan Muslim Uyghur di China. 

Islamofobia Sistemik dan Interpersonal: Dalam masyarakat majoriti Barat dan bukan Islam, umat Islam mengalami prejudis yang meluas, yang menjelma sebagai jenayah kebencian, diskriminasi dalam pekerjaan dan pendidikan, dan gambaran negatif media. Wanita Islam, terutamanya mereka yang memakai hijab, sering menghadapi Islamofobia gender.

[Gambar di atas, salah satu bentuk "Islamophobic" keatas umat Islam dengan mengunakan gambar Perdana Mentri Jepun dengan kenyataan yang diragukan. Ini dilakukan olih seorang bangsa Cina atau pertubuhan China254 Entertaiment.]

Ketahanan dan Kebangkitan Kebenaran

Dalam menghadapi cabaran ini, komuniti Islam telah menunjukkan daya tahan yang ketara dan menggunakan pelbagai strategi untuk mengekalkan kepercayaan mereka dan memberi penerangan tentang kebenaran:

Kekuatan dan Keimanan Dalaman: Ramai umat Islam mendapat kekuatan daripada kepercayaan mereka melalui amalan kerohanian seperti sabr (kesabaran), tawakkal (kepercayaan kepada Tuhan), dan doa untuk menghadapi kesukaran. Al-Quran memberi jaminan kepada orang yang beriman bahawa tiada penindasan yang dapat memusnahkan Islam dan kebenaran akan mengatasi kepalsuan.

Komuniti dan Advokasi: Membina rangkaian sokongan yang kukuh melalui pusat Islam dan organisasi komuniti membantu memerangi pengasingan sosial dan menyediakan ruang untuk pengalaman bersama. Organisasi seperti Majlis Hubungan Amerika-Islam terlibat dalam advokasi undang-undang dan kempen kesedaran awam untuk mencabar diskriminasi dan menggalakkan pemahaman Islam yang lebih tepat.

Pendidikan dan Dialog: Pendidikan dan dialog antara agama dilihat sebagai alat penting untuk mencabar maklumat salah, memecahkan stereotaip dan memupuk masyarakat yang lebih inklusif.

[Protest on Muslim migration in many European Countries]

Perwakilan Positif: Menonjolkan sumbangan positif umat Islam kepada masyarakat dalam pelbagai bidang membantu mengatasi naratif media negatif dan memberi inspirasi kepada generasi muda.

Keyakinan bahawa "cahaya Allah tidak akan pernah padam" dan bahawa Islam akhirnya akan memimpin dengan kebenaran memberikan sumber harapan dan motivasi yang kuat untuk ramai umat Islam dalam perjuangan mereka yang berterusan.

Key efforts and initiatives by the Malaysian Government post-civil war Bosnia Herzagovina Re- Development

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia played a significant and proactive role in assisting Bosnia and Herzegovina both during and immediately after the Bosnian War (1992–1995), concerned with western nation providing no support for postwar recovery for the city of  Sarajevo and the Bosniak Muslim community. Mahathir's efforts were driven by a sense of duty to help fellow Muslims, outrage at the inaction of Western powers, and a desire to uphold human rights, leading to substantial political, financial, and rebuilding support.

Key efforts and initiatives by Malaysia post-civil war included:

Long-Term Military Support and Security: After the 1995 Dayton Agreement, Malaysia continued its support by transitioning its peacekeepers (MALBATT) into the NATO-led IFOR (Implementation Force) and SFOR (Stabilization Force) to help maintain peace. Malaysia helped train the Bosnian armed forces to ensure they could secure their own country's peace and stability.

Financial and Economic Reconstruction: Malaysia contributed to rebuilding infrastructure, including building schools and mosques. In 2001, Malaysia supported a $20-million joint investment project in Sarajevo (Bosmal D.O.O.) for a multi-storey commercial and residential complex.

Humanitarian and Educational Support: Malaysia supported the reconstruction of Bosnia through the donation of funds, and through the 1990s and early 2000s, provided opportunities for education. Bosnian students and professionals who had taken refuge in Malaysia during the war returned home with English proficiency and computer skills, helping them secure jobs in international organizations aiding reconstruction.

Diplomatic and Political Advocacy: Mahathir continued to act as a strong advocate for Bosnia on the international stage, pushing for the rights of Bosniaks and lobbying for foreign investment in the newly independent country.

Honoring the Efforts: Due to the immense support from Malaysia and Mahathir, a monument of gratitude to Mahathir Mohamad was unveiled in Sarajevo in 2020.

Background on wartime support (pre-1995):

Before the war ended, Mahathir sent Malaysian soldiers to join UN Peacekeeping Operations. Malaysia also opened its doors to Bosnian refugees, accepting them without visas during the conflict.

Note: The primary sources of information regarding Malaysia's support during this period indicate that the effort to aid Bosnia was strongly pushed by Mahathir as part of an active foreign policy, often criticizing the UN and Western powers for their inaction.

Malaysia and Bosnia and Herzegovina maintain strong bilateral relations, characterized by economic cooperation, investment projects, and historical support from Malaysia in the reconstruction of Bosnia. Key areas of collaboration include trade, investment, defence, and the halal sector. 

Key Projects and Economic Cooperation

Investments: Malaysian investments in Bosnia and Herzegovina exceeded RM160 million as of early 2024, focused on sectors like property development, hotels, and restaurants.

Malaysian-Bosnian Joint Project (Bosmal): Bank Islam (Labuan) Ltd has previously provided significant loans for construction projects, including the Bosmal City Centre in Sarajevo.

Halal and Agriculture: Both countries cooperate closely in the agricultural and halal sectors, with three Malaysian Islamic banks operating in Bosnia since 2010.

Infrastructure: Malaysia has shown readiness to participate in infrastructure, energy, and business networking projects, as highlighted in 2019.

Business Council: The Malaysia-Bosnia and Herzegovina Business Council (MBBC) was launched in 2014 to enhance economic ties and strengthen business links. 

Diplomatic and Historical Cooperation

Defence and Training: Since 2003, Bosnia has participated in the Malaysian Defence Cooperation Programme, with 82 personnel trained by 2009 in areas like UN peacekeeping, logistics, and law.

International Support: Malaysia was a strong supporter of Bosnia-Herzegovina during the conflict in the 1990s, actively opposing the UN and Western policies.

Tourism: The Embassy of Malaysia in Sarajevo has actively worked to boost tourism links, preparing for the Visit Malaysia Year 2026.

Visa Policy: Citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina do not require a visa to enter Malaysia for tourism purposes for up to 3 months. 

Recent Developments

2024 Forum: The Malaysia-Bosnia and Herzegovina International Business Forum 2024 was organized to strengthen economic partnerships.

Trade Growth: Bilateral trade between the two nations increased by 32.2% in 2023.

Diplomatic Support: Malaysia has historically provided strong diplomatic support, with Bosnian citizens often viewing Malaysia as a key friend. 

Bahasa Melayu:[Translation]

Usaha dan inisiatif utama oleh Kerajaan Malaysia pasca perang saudara. Pembangunan Semula Bosnia Herzagovina.

Di bawah kepimpinan Perdana Menteri Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia memainkan peranan penting dan proaktif dalam membantu Bosnia dan Herzegovina semasa dan sejurus selepas Perang Bosnia (1992–1995), bertindak sebagai pemula untuk komuniti Muslim Bosniak. Usaha Mahathir didorong oleh rasa tanggungjawab untuk membantu sesama Muslim, kemarahan terhadap ketidakaktifan kuasa Barat, dan keinginan untuk menegakkan hak asasi manusia, yang membawa kepada sokongan politik, kewangan dan pembangunan semula yang besar.

Usaha dan inisiatif utama oleh Malaysia pasca perang saudara termasuk:

Sokongan dan Keselamatan Ketenteraan Jangka Panjang: Selepas Perjanjian Dayton 1995, Malaysia meneruskan sokongannya dengan memindahkan pasukan pengamannya (MALBATT) kepada IFOR (Pasukan Pelaksanaan) dan SFOR (Pasukan Penstabilan) yang diketuai NATO untuk membantu mengekalkan keamanan. Malaysia membantu melatih angkatan tentera Bosnia bagi memastikan mereka dapat menjamin keamanan dan kestabilan negara mereka sendiri.

Pembinaan Semula Kewangan dan Ekonomi: Malaysia menyumbang kepada pembinaan semula infrastruktur, termasuk membina sekolah dan masjid. Pada tahun 2001, Malaysia menyokong projek pelaburan bersama bernilai $20 juta di Sarajevo (Bosmal D.O.O.) untuk kompleks komersial dan kediaman bertingkat.

Sokongan Kemanusiaan dan Pendidikan: Malaysia menyokong pembinaan semula Bosnia melalui sumbangan dana, dan sepanjang tahun 1990-an dan awal 2000-an, menyediakan peluang untuk pendidikan. Pelajar dan profesional Bosnia yang telah berlindung di Malaysia semasa perang pulang ke tanah air dengan kemahiran Bahasa Inggeris dan komputer, membantu mereka mendapatkan pekerjaan dalam organisasi antarabangsa yang membantu pembinaan semula.

Advokasi Diplomatik dan Politik: Mahathir terus bertindak sebagai penyokong kuat untuk Bosnia di pentas antarabangsa, memperjuangkan hak-hak Bosniak dan melobi pelaburan asing di negara yang baru merdeka itu.

Menghormati Usaha-usaha tersebut: Disebabkan sokongan yang besar daripada Malaysia dan Mahathir, sebuah monumen penghargaan kepada Mahathir Mohamad telah dirasmikan di Sarajevo pada tahun 2020.

Latar belakang sokongan masa perang (sebelum 1995):

Sebelum perang tamat, Mahathir menghantar tentera Malaysia untuk menyertai Operasi Pengaman PBB. Malaysia juga membuka pintunya kepada pelarian Bosnia, menerima mereka tanpa visa semasa konflik.

Nota: Sumber maklumat utama mengenai sokongan Malaysia dalam tempoh ini menunjukkan bahawa usaha untuk membantu Bosnia telah didorong oleh Mahathir sebagai sebahagian daripada dasar luar yang aktif, sering mengkritik PBB dan kuasa Barat kerana tidak bertindak.

Jambatan Persabatan - Sumbangan Malaysia:

The Bridge of Sarajevo

Jambatan Persahabatan Malaysia-Bosnia dan Herzegovina, juga dikenali sebagai Malezijski Most dan Bosmalov Most, ialah sebuah jambatan yang merentasi Sungai Miljacka antara kawasan kejiranan Sarajevo, Čengić Vila dan Hrasno.

Ia juga menghubungkan salah satu jalan utama di bandar ini, Bulevar Meše Selimovića, dengan Jalan Gradačačka dan Pusat Bandar Bosmal.

Jambatan ini melambangkan persahabatan antara Malaysia dan Bosnia dan Herzegovina dan dibuka pada 31 Mei 2005 oleh bekas Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Mahathir Mohamad.

Reka bentuk jambatan ini diselia oleh arkitek di Institut IPSA dan didirikan oleh syarikat pembinaan, ŽGP.

Jambatan moden ini mempunyai empat lorong untuk lalu lintas dan dibina selari dengan jambatan pejalan kaki lama, yang dikenali secara tempatan sebagai Treskin Most, yang tidak lagi digunakan.

Malaysia dan Bosnia dan Herzegovina mengekalkan hubungan dua hala yang kukuh, dicirikan oleh kerjasama ekonomi, projek pelaburan dan sokongan sejarah daripada Malaysia dalam pembinaan semula Bosnia. Bidang kerjasama utama termasuk perdagangan, pelaburan, pertahanan dan sektor halal.

M’sians travelling to India urged to be wary of Nipah virus

 

India’s health ministry had confirmed two cases of Nipah virus in the eastern state of West Bengal. (EPA Images pic)

Cases of Nipah virus infection were first reported in 1998 and have since been reported in Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Singapore. The case fatality rate is estimated at 40% to 75%. Fruit bats of the Pteropodidae family are the natural host of the Nipah virus

The High Commission of Malaysia in New Delhi has urged Malaysians travelling to India to take precautions against Nipah virus infection.

The commission advised those visiting areas with reported Nipah virus cases to wear masks in public places and to avoid crowded areas where possible.

Travellers and residents are also urged to maintain strict personal hygiene, including frequent hand-washing, and to avoid consuming unwashed fruits or food that may be contaminated.

“The High Commission will continue to monitor developments closely and provide updates as necessary,” it said in an advisory.

“Malaysian nationals are encouraged to stay informed and follow all recommended precautions in the interest of their health and safety.”

It also cautioned against contact with sick animals or individuals exhibiting symptoms such as fever, headache, cough, or respiratory distress.

India’s health ministry has confirmed two cases of Nipah virus in the eastern state of West Bengal. On Tuesday, it reported that the outbreak had been contained.

The outbreak has prompted authorities in several Asian countries, including Malaysia, to implement screening measures for travellers arriving from India.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Nipah virus infection is a zoonotic illness transmitted from animals to humans and can also spread among people through contaminated food or direct human-to-human contact.

The virus typically incubates in the human body for four to 14 days. There is no treatment or vaccine currently available.

Nipah virus usually transmits from infected bats and other animals to humans and can also be transmitted directly between people. There is currently no treatment or vaccine available for Nipah virus, however several candidate products are under development. Early intensive supportive care can improve survival.

AL AQSA ADALAH TANGGUNGJAWAB UMAT ISLAM.

Jangan berdiam diri.

Beritahu rakyat Palestin bahawa mereka tidak keseorangan.

Krisis Palestin bertindak sebagai penunjuk yang kuat, dan faktor penentu utama bagi solidariti Muslim, yang berpunca daripada kesucian Islam Palestin yang mendalam (Masjid Al-Aqsa) dan identiti agama/sejarah yang dikongsi, yang menggalakkan sokongan dan aktivisme; walau bagaimanapun, solidariti ini tidak monolitik, kerana kepentingan negara, geopolitik, dan ideologi yang berbeza (kesederhanaan vs. penentangan) dalam dunia Islam yang pelbagai mewujudkan variasi yang ketara dalam tindak balas peringkat negeri, menjadikannya sebagai punca penyatuan dan titik perpecahan dalaman.

Bagaimana ia bertindak sebagai faktor penentu:

Teras Keagamaan: Palestin, terutamanya Baitulmaqdis dan Masjid Al-Aqsa, mempunyai kepentingan agama yang sangat besar (kiblat pertama, tapak suci ketiga), menjadikan pertahanannya sebagai tugas suci bagi umat Islam, melangkaui sempadan negara.

Identiti Bersama: Perjuangan ini memupuk identiti Muslim/Islam kolektif, meletakkan rakyat Palestin sebagai pelindung tapak suci Islam, menyatukan umat Islam yang pelbagai di bawah satu tujuan yang sama.

Mobilisasi: Krisis seperti konflik Gaza mencetuskan mobilisasi awam besar-besaran, bantuan kemanusiaan dan kempen kesedaran global, menunjukkan solidariti popular yang kuat.

Bagaimana ia berfungsi sebagai penunjuk:

Kepelbagaian Respons: Respons yang berbeza-beza daripada negara-negara Islam (daripada sokongan yang kuat kepada pendirian neutral) menunjukkan kepentingan negara mereka, hubungan dengan kuasa global (seperti AS), dan dinamik politik dalaman.

Perpecahan Dalaman: Krisis ini mendedahkan perpecahan yang mendalam, seperti antara paksi "penentangan" yang diketuai Iran dan negara yang lebih sederhana yang memihak kepada penyelesaian politik, menonjolkan garisan sesar geopolitik dalam dunia Islam.

Kekuatan Aktivisme: Skala bantahan dan aktivisme popular (protes, boikot) menunjukkan kedalaman perasaan keagamaan dan komitmen terhadap perjuangan, menunjukkan kuasa identiti Islam dalam tindakan kolektif.

Pada dasarnya: Isu Palestin adalah ujian litmus, mendedahkan kedua-dua potensi penyatuan mendalam kepercayaan dan identiti bersama (Solidariti) dan realiti politik yang kompleks dan sering bercanggah yang membentuk dunia Islam (Faktor/Petunjuk Penentu).

Krisis Palestin faktor penentu atau petunjuk untuk Solidariti Muslim dan Islam?

Krisis Palestin merupakan petunjuk yang sangat penting dan titik pertemuan emosi untuk solidariti umat Islam kerana kepentingan agama tanah dan penderitaan rakyatnya, tetapi ia bukanlah satu-satunya faktor penentu mutlak untuk perpaduan. Tahap solidariti dalam tindakan juga sangat dipengaruhi oleh pelbagai kepentingan negara, ideologi politik, dan pakatan geopolitik.

Peranan Krisis Palestin dalam Solidariti Muslim

Kepentingan Agama: Palestin memegang tempat yang unik dan suci dalam Islam, sebagai tapak Masjid Al-Aqsa, salah satu tempat paling suci Islam. Hubungan rohani yang mendalam ini bermakna ramai umat Islam di seluruh dunia secara semula jadi mengambil berat tentang rantau ini, melihat pendudukannya sebagai serangan terhadap agama mereka.

Imperatif Kemanusiaan: Krisis ini dilihat secara meluas bukan sahaja sebagai isu politik atau agama, tetapi sebagai isu moral dan kemanusiaan yang mendalam. Penderitaan rakyat Palestin membangkitkan respons emosi dan belas kasihan yang kuat, menggesa komuniti Islam global untuk menyokong mangsa ketidakadilan dan penindasan.

Simbol Penentangan: Perjuangan Palestin sering dibingkaikan sebagai simbol penentangan terhadap penjajahan dan campur tangan Barat dalam dunia Islam, yang bergema dengan naratif sejarah dan kontemporari merentasi pelbagai masyarakat Islam.

Membangkitkan Emosi: Isu ini mempunyai keupayaan yang kuat untuk membangkitkan emosi umat Islam dan mempengaruhi sikap mereka terhadap pelbagai isu dan pelaku global, terutamanya kuasa Barat yang dianggap menyokong Israel.

Faktor Lain yang Mempengaruhi Solidariti Muslim

Walaupun potensi penyatuannya, solidariti praktikal antara negara majoriti Muslim berbeza-beza dengan ketara disebabkan oleh faktor-faktor lain:

Kepentingan Geopolitik dan Negara: Dasar luar negara Islam selalunya ditentukan terutamanya oleh kepentingan negara, ekonomi dan strategik mereka sendiri, bukan semata-mata oleh solidariti agama. Sesetengah negara mengejar normalisasi dengan Israel untuk faedah strategik, sementara yang lain menerima pakai pendirian anti-Israel untuk memajukan pengaruh serantau mereka sendiri.

Ideologi Politik: Perbezaan dalam ideologi rejim pemerintah—sama ada sekular, nasionalis atau Islam—menyebabkan pelbagai respons terhadap isu Palestin. Ini telah mengakibatkan "perpecahan rumah" dalam dunia Islam, dengan puak-puak yang berbeza mempunyai pandangan yang berbeza tentang pendekatan konflik tersebut.

Dinamik dan Perikatan Dalaman: Kekuatan politik dan ekonomi relatif sesebuah rejim, berserta perikatannya dengan kuasa-kuasa besar (terutamanya Amerika Syarikat), memberi kesan yang ketara terhadap pendiriannya terhadap krisis tersebut.

Pendirian Awam vs. Kerajaan: Selalunya terdapat jurang antara sentimen awam yang popular, yang sangat menyokong perjuangan Palestin, dan dasar sebenar kerajaan, di mana isu ini mungkin diketepikan untuk mengejar keutamaan lain.

Essensi, walaupun krisis Palestin berfungsi sebagai penunjuk kritikal yang diwajibkan oleh agama untuk perpaduan umat Islam dan dapat merangsang sokongan popular dan kemanusiaan yang kuat, keupayaannya untuk menghasilkan tindak balas politik yang bersatu dan konkrit dari seluruh dunia Islam dimediasi oleh jaringan faktor politik dan strategik dunia sebenar yang kompleks.
