JOHOR BARU: A programme to include selawat recitation (praises to the Prophet Muhammad) at primary and secondary schools throughout the state has been cancelled just a day after it was launched.
The Program Sekolah Berselawat was launched by state education director Md Said Md Daimon on Jan 5 and was called off the very next day.
“We would like to clarify that the cancellation of PSB did not come from pressure of any quarters as claimed, but to improve the suitability of its objectives so that it is delivered to the right groups,” the department said in a statement yesterday. “The programme was cancelled so that we can improve it and study its suitability for other schools in Johor,” the department pointed out.
