Court Never Mentioned M'sia As Secular Nation

Perhaps Karpal Singh is still yet to fully recover from his illness the other day that he is still making rants? Perhaps he is still hallucinating when he said that Tun Salleh Abbas used to state that Malaysia is a secular nation during the case of Che’ Omar Che Soh.
Tun Salleh Abbas as the National Chief of Justice only stated that there are laws in this country that seems secular and he had never said that Malaysia is a secular country.
Tun Dr. Mahathir, Malaysia's former Prime Minister had already stressed that this is an Islamic nation because it is ruled by a Muslim, Islam as the official religion but at the same never restrict the practice of other religions.
For that, the Federal Constitution commanded Rulers and rakyat as a whole to protect Islam through Article 37 which requires the main ruler of this country, Yang di-Pertuan Agong to swear upon the name of Allah to protect Islam at all time. Besides that, all rulers either Executive, legislative and judiciary also follows the sworn of Yang di-Pertuan Agong to ensure the purity of Islam.
Karpal's action in raising this matter, along with his clash against PAS only shows DAP's evil agenda who would do anything to fight Islam and to abolish Islam as the official religion for this country. His action can be seen as going against the Rukun Negara.
It seems that their clash is only confusing rakyat and it could possibly trigger conflict.
Rakyat need to understand that an Islamic nation do not have to necessarily practice hudud. Even Egypt, the country which has a lot of famous Scholars do not practice hudud.
The implementation of hudud in a country do not guarantee heaven to all Muslims. This is because heaven and hell only depend on the personal deeds between a Muslim and Allah. The government and its law do not influence the status of a Muslim with Allah.
Karpal clearly do not understand all of that but the same thing goes to those Muslims who as if live for the sake of hudud.
But, either Karpal understand the matter or not, it is very irresponsible of him to raise this matter and rejecting the principals of Rukun Negara and the Constitution which puts this country as an Islamic nation.
Perhaps Karpal prefers to make a fool of himself by not approving his knowledge on this country's constitution just so that he could fight against hudud and everything that has to do with Islam?
Whetever it is, PAS had made an oath to fight alongside Karpal and DAP whole Hudud would only remain as their official anthem to gain votes.
