Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki told Parliament today that atheism was "unconstitutional" and an offence under the Sedition Act 1948.
Asyraf added that while the Federal Constitution guaranteed freedom of religion, it did not allow for freedom from religion.
"We need to understand in the context of Malaysia, freedom of religion stated in our Federal Constitution does not mean freedom not to have a religion.
"Because it is unconstitutional to spread the ideology of no religion in the context of this country. Freedom of religion is not freedom from religion," he said.
Asyraf described atheism as "dangerous", noting that Article 11(4) of the Federal Constitution did not allow for the spread of other religions, beliefs or doctrines to Muslims in the country.
