KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 26, 2014: The wives of Ustaz Azhar Idrus (UAI), well-known independent Islamic preacher and speaker, expressed their disappointment over the spread of a 38-second sex clip depicting a man who resembled the speaker in bed with a woman. In expressing their disappointment over the incident which had taken the internet by storm since its release on Thursday, they promised to face the issue by staying strong together. UAI’s first wife, Rogayah Sulong, in her Facebook posting expressed her sadness, praying that Allah would cover the shame her family was facing. “The test and tribulations are great and it seems unbearable and I ask that You (God) to cover all our shame and give us the strength to face this predicament. “I also wish to thank those who have prayed for my family to overcome this problem and that God bless us all in eternity, ameen,” she said. His second wife Nisya Wan, said she had received too many Whatsapp, Wechat and Blackberry messages (BBM) asking about the well-being of her family as well as words of prayers for her family. In thanking all her friends and family for their prayers, she said: “We will be strong with the strength God has bestowed upon us.” She added that no matter what happens she will stand by her family and that she was very proud of her husband. The sex clip was believed to have first been uploaded on a blog before going viral on social media soon after. This is the first time a religious scholar has been linked to a sex clip in the country. UAI’s assistant Zulkifli Wahab told Harian Metro that it was not the preacher in the video, saying that this was an effort to tarnish his image.
