Lawyers must 'uphold sanctity of the courts'

Raja Nazrin: Courts are not theatres

Legal Practitioners Duty Bound To Uphold Sovereignty Of Judicial System, Says Raja Nazrin

'Jangan biarkan mahkamah dilihat sebagai teater'

Mahkamah bukan teater bangsawan, titah Raja Nazrin

First-Past-The-Post (FPTP)

The First-Past-the-Post system is the simplest form of plurality/majority system, using single member districts and candidate-centered voting. The voter is presented with the names of the nominated candidates and votes by choosing one, and only one, of them. The winning candidate is simply the person who wins the most votes; in theory he or she could be elected with two votes, if every other candidate only secured a single vote.

Along with the UK, the cases most often analyzed are Canada, India, and the United States.

SYSTEM OF ELECTIONS IN MALAYSIA: Since 1957, Malaysia has retained a multi-party political system whereby the political party which secures the majority of the Parliamentary seats (House of Representatives) or the State Legislative Assembly seats can form the Federal or State Government as the case may be. The system used in Malaysia is based on the First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) System. This implies that the candidate who secures a simple majority will be declared the winner in that constituency.

The eye did not swerve, nor did it go wrong

Tajalliyat whether they occur in the guise of forms and figures or under the veils of lights and colors, happens in walayat, particularly in its early stages. Nubuwat, on the other hand, meets the real directly w/out encountering illuminations and appearances which are the shadows of the real.

Similarly, in traversing the stages of the prophetic path, we do not get tajalliyat, but when we come to the prophetic way thru the saintly way, we receive them. This happens, however, due to walayat rather than due to traversing the path of nubuwat.

In short, illuminations and appearances signify shadow, and one who has renounced the love of shadows is liberated from tajalliyat. We can look for the truth of ‘the eye did not swerve, nor did it go wrong’ here, and here, and here...
