(Dissent is defined as "Difference of opinion or feeling; disagreement.", " The refusal to conform to the authority or doctrine", "Refusal to concur with the opinion of a majority")
For far too long, we (Malaysians, and especially Malays) have been taught and conditioned to be obedient! Children have been told to 'Listen!' Our culture has conditioned employees to 'follow' their bosses, and wives to be obedient to their husbands, even if the later are in the wrongs. The youngs who talk back to their elders are considered bad mannered!
Pp says, "It is time to speak up for good reasons~! It is our duty to correct the wrongs, and if we have to speak up in order to do that, then we must!"
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "Whoever saw a Munkar, let him change it by his hand and if he cannot then by his tongue and if he cannot then with his heart and that is the weakest of Imaan."
