“I become more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of Hussein, the scrupulous regard for pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers and his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission.

“I'm a fundamentalist in the true sense. That is to say, I follow the fundamentals of religion...

They are actually deviating from the teachings of the religion!”
― Mahathir Mohamad
