My Menteri Besar, the Amirul Mu’minin
I have always been a PAS supporter, but I have never known Ir. Nizar personally. But ever since he was appointed the Menteri Besar of Perak Darul Ridzuan, I have often heard of so many good stories about him (e.g. he is intelligent, he can speak Mandarin etc).
Last night, I had the chance to hear him talk. Not in person, but I watched a VCD that was passed to me by my dad’s good friend. (Thank you Tok Megat!) It was a session between him and the leaders of the kampungs (JKKK) in Perak which was held at SUK.
Masya Allah! I was stunned!
He is just AMAZING. He is extremely articulate, and extremely convincing. Most impressive is the way he relates every single issue that he mentions to a particular verse in the Quran. He talked about how we should accept the taqdir of Allah, how Allah created us so that we can get to know each other (taaruf), about being amanah, about how iman and jihad go hand-in-hand.
I am thankful that Allah has given us a leader that can lead the Muslims and non-Muslims – and I pray that Allah gives him the strength to fulfill his duties. I am so proud to be in Perak!
YB Ir Nizar, I salute you!
