Malaysian Government stated that Faisal Tehrani’s

Bercinta (The Beloved Lady) is officially banned .
The banning is under Section 7(1) of the Printing
Presses and Publications Act 1984 and the order was
gazetted on April 9, 201428. Mere possession of a
banned book can lead to a jail term and fine of 5,000
Malaysian ringgit (US$1,470). The ban followed a
decree by the National Fatwa Council on May 5,
1996, which declared any production, broadcast and
distribution of any books, pamphlets, films and video
deviating from the Sunni teaching as haram
(forbidden). Three reasons were given; the first of
which was that it allegedly questioned and mocked
Sunni hadiths as discriminatory against women,
which leads to the Quran being portrayed as holding
to a primitive mentality. Secondly, the novel
allegedly worshipped the Ahlul Bayt group and
portrayed those who do not follow the group as
dubious Muslims. Ahlul Bayt, literally meaning
