Muzakarah Imam Tapi Ada Pop Yeh Yeh?

Pelik tapi benar. I was watching the morning news on TV3 this morning and saw about the dinner held at TPM's residence in Putrajaya for the imams after the national imam's convention at UKM yesterday. What shocked me the most was the entertainment provided by the host - a veteran Pop Yeh Yeh group led by Dato' A Rahman Hassan who is also the guitar player for the band.

Isn't that strange to see a group of alim ulama be entertained with those kind of music? Not to say that I'm oppossing music but wouldn't it be more appropriate if those guests were lavished with nasyid, berzanji, recitation of Quran verses?

I'm not going into the halal haram part of music, but just talking about appropriateness. Macam kalau kita pakai baju kebaya, tapi menari and menyanyi head banging. Kan tak kena tempat?? *sigh*....
