PM AAB okayed Yoga

From The Star Thursday November 27, 2008
PM clarifies — yoga okay without chanting

KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said Muslims who performed yoga without chanting any mantra can carry on with their activity as it was good for their health.

He urged all quarters to understand the content of the yoga fatwa issued by the National Fatwa Council and not twist facts and cause confusion among the public.

He said: “I wish to state that a physical regimen with no elements of worship can continue, meaning, it is not banned. I believe that Muslims are not easily swayed into polytheism,” he told Bernama yesterday.
