Once again, well-known entrepreneur Datuk Seri Aliff Syukri did not miss the golden opportunity to release a new hymn titled Kepelak Kelepuk Raya.
Aliff uploaded a teaser of the song on Instagram which had received more than 26,000 likes at the time of writing.
However, some netizens said they felt uncomfortable with the three background dancers in the video.
Dancers Cast A Negative Image of Islam
According to netizens, the three background dancers did not represent the image of Muslims because of their dress which was considered indecent.
They added that the dancing was excessive and such a video is not suitable for the public, especially during the holy month of Ramadan.
Netizens said that the male dancers appeared effeminate, drawing reference to controversial cosmetics entrepreneur Muhammad Sajjad Kamaruz Zaman, also known as Nur Sajat.
The transgender cosmetics entrepreneur allegedly fled the country to Thailand via Padang Besar illegally, before migrating to Australia.
A transwoman had to flee the country just to be free from religious authorities.
