21:07Now PlayingThe sale of socks featuring the word "Allah" at a KK Super Mart convenience store on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia has sparked outrage among the country's Muslim majority. The store's CEO, Chai Kee Kan, and other executives were charged in court with "deliberately intending to hurt...religious feelings" over the incident. According to Malaysia's religious affairs minister Mohamad Na'im Mokhtar, the association of the word "Allah", which Muslims see as referring to their creator, with feet is highly insulting, stating "the act of putting Allah at our feet is an insult." The case drew a rare rebuke from Malaysia's King, who called for an investigation and "strict action" against any guilty parties. Malaysia is a multicultural country, but religious issues remain highly sensitive, highlighted by this controversy over just 14 pairs of the offending socks sold during the fasting month of Ramadan.
