Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad is of a view that the controversial preacher Zakir Naik has ventured into "racial politics" following the latter's recent remarks on Chinese and Hindu Malaysians.
Mahathir said the government has no qualm about Zakir giving religious speeches but he said: "It's clear that Zakir wants to participate in racial politics in Malaysia.
"In the first place, I don't know who gave him the permanent resident (PR) status. But to be a permanent resident, you cannot participate in politics.
"You can make religious speeches and preach but he (Zakir) wasn't doing that. He was talking about sending Chinese to China... that's political.
"If you want to talk about religion, go ahead. That is permissible. We don't want to stop him from that," he said in a media conference after opening the 62nd ISI World Statistics Congress in Kuala Lumpur today.
