KETUA Pengarah JAKIM, Datuk Wan Mohamad Sheikh Abdul Aziz
mengiringi Abdul Rahman (kanan) ketika kunjungannya ke JAKIM,
Putrajaya, semalam


Beliau (Sheikh) juga berharap kita akan sentiasa beristiqamah dalam kepemimpinan dan memberikan keadilan kepada seluruh rakyat yang ada di Malaysia tanpa mengira agama dan bangsa.

"Kunjungan beliau (Sheikh Abdul Rahman) ke sini bagi memenuhi jemputan kerajaan sememangnya satu sejarah dan sudah lama dinantikan rakyat Malaysia, terutama mereka yang pernah mendengar bacaan al-Quran ketika mengimamkan solat jemaah di Makkah,

Beliau juga dijadual menyampaikan khutbah dan mengimamkan solat Jumaat di Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan, Kuala Lumpur

Antara pesanan-pesanan beliau ialah, supaya umat Islam berpegang teguh kepada Al-Quran dan Sunnah, menguasai ilmu supaya dapat memajukan ummah, menguasai bahasa Arab, tidak lemah hingga ditindas dan bersatu padu.

Al Sheikh Dr Abd Rahman seringkali mengingatkan umat Islam agar bersatu padu dalam setiap ceramah
dan khutbahnya setiapkali melawat ke luar negara. Beliau sering menitiskan airmata setiap kali menyentuh tentang kesatuan ummah ni. Paling saya ingat masa khutbah raya dulu , masa tu beliau mengingatkan umat Islam tentang nasib saudara seagama kita di Palestine dan Iraq yang diserang musuh. Beliau sangat kecewa dengan sikap pemimpin-pemimpin Islam yang tidak bersatu-padu. Katanya, kiblat kita sama, tuhan kita sama tapi mengapa mesti berpecah belah dan kenapa tidak boleh bersatu.




SHEIKH ABDUL RAHMAN AL-SUDAIS showing his humbleness mashaAllah, may Allah keep him
