Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today expressed the need to immediately set up a commission to address deviationist teachings through a cooperation with the Home Ministry and the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim).
Ahmad Zahid, who is Home Minister, said this was necessary in view of the spread of deviationist teachings, as well as the Syiah teachings, in the country which had to be addressed.
"Look at what had been done by illegal movements, such as the extremist religious groups al-Arqam, al-Ma'unah, Ayah Pin and Tuhan Harun. We don't want the Muslims to be divided by deviationist teachings," he said.
He said this when winding up the debate at the Umno General Assembly 2013 at the Putra World Trade Centre here today.
Ahmad Zahid said the spread of the Syiah teachings which was raised by delegates at the assembly, including the Youth movement, was being addressed.
