When . . .

when a Malay person harbors envy toward another Malay...
when a Malay person deceives another Malay...
when a Malay person slanders another Malay...
when a Malay person insults another Malay...
when a Malay person mistreats another Malay...
when a Malay person betrays another Malay...

remember this: possessing such traits will lead a Malay person astray, drifting into a path without direction or purpose... free your heart from these impurities so you may walk toward the path that is true and straight... do not allow your heart to be colonized by the darkness that destroys both faith and the dignity of our community...
