Manchester United shirts etc have all been banned in parts of Malaysia because of the devil logo, the devil image is forbidden in Islam. Muslim leaders have ruled that images on football shirts of crosses, devils and alcohol brands are an insult and are not allowed to be worn! Manchester United have a huge fans base in the country.
“There is no excuse for wearing such garments because it means, as a Muslim, you are idolising the symbol of another religion,” said Datuk Nooh Gadot, the Mufti of Johor state. The Mufti of Perak, Tan Sri Harussani Zakaria, said that Muslims wearing such football shirts “leads to a path of sin”.
We can’t go bad mouthing this because we have to show respect for other religions. Many of our readers are Muslims seeing that there are many that liked our Facebook group. But I hope that their can be a way of sorting this out. By that I mean Manchester United bring out something else for them fans that might just contain the name or something on that line. But guys keep wearing the colours!
