“In the West today, their talks on the understanding of the human race are dominated by (concepts on how) humans are more like animals, according to the Darwinian evolution theory,” he said when debating the Human Rights Commission’s 2020 Annual Report in the Dewan Rakyat today.

“This contradicts the Islamic understanding of what constitutes a human, as Muslims believe that God created our spirit and body. This thinking has been rejected by Western scholars.”

Oh, so you should have an even higher standard on human rights than the west since the human soul is divine, right? No? 🙄

Just more "west bad" screeching from someone that doesn't appreciate being told that people (LGBTQ+ people in particular, but not exclusively) have human rights too.
