An interview with Dr. Farish A. Noor
Nizam Zakaria

Dr Farish A Noor to me is one of the true Malay intellectual of our time. After reading many of his articles and his latest offering, a collection of essays called: 慣he Other Malaysia

Sambung...

6. How did you react to the systematic vilification of you after you allegedly denigrated and demeaned Islam by the Persatuan Ulama Malaysia (The Malaysian Religious Scholars Association) and 7 other organizations. What was your response when they rejected the idea of a dialogue concerning the matter (with you and with 5 other individuals concerned).

Dialogue is necessary all the time. It is only through dialogue that we encounter difference and only through that that we really understand ourselves. I was sad when the PUM rejected the chance for dialogue, but thankfully my other Islamism comrades and friends offered me a forum to defend my position. I was particularly thankful to the ABIM Movement, JUST, and certain Ulama like Ustaz Uthman al-Muhammady who came to my defense and let me explain myself.

Groups like ABIM are important today because they are proof that Islamist organisations can also be civil society organisations and they will defend civic culture when it is under threat.

I did not expect everyone to agree with me or like what I said, but at least hear what I have to say first before attacking me! I even received death threats and abuse. One Friday I was even spat at a mosque when I went for Jemaah prayers. I felt very depressed then, thinking of how low we Muslims have come, to hate each other like that for no real reason...

But having said that, I would like to point out that I bear no malice against the PUM or even PAS who attacked me then. I understand that they did what they did under good faith and they were doing what they thought was right. I respect their sincerity even though I think their methods were over-the-top.

After the dialogue at ABIM, some PUM members even came to me and said that they understood me better. It proves that dialogue can help resolve our differences and we need not think of each other in terms of 'friends
