Menurut mufti Perlis, Dr Asri, kepercayaan sial dan tuah mengenai cincin dan tarikh pengundian adalah satu kepercayaan khurafat yang bertentangan dengan Al-Qur’an dan As-Sunnah.

Former PAS man Hanafi hopes to catch fallout votes from main candidates (the star online)
BUTTERWORTH: Before nomination day on Aug 16, Angkatan Keadilan Insan Malaysia (Akim) president Hanafi Hamat was a virtual unknown in Permatang Pauh.
The preacher would still remain a face in the crowd but for a huge, flashy ring on his left hand.
Ringing in good luck: Hanafi showing off his eye-catching emerald bauble which he claims has brought him a lot of luck.
The Kelantan-based 61-year-old claimed that the eye-catching accessory was a good luck charm.
“It is an emerald ring which I have been wearing for as long as I can remember – my cincin pembawa tuah (lucky ring),” he smiled.
Asked if he was nervous about losing his by-election deposit, the father of 12, who is still fighting on, said that he stood a good chance of winning even though he only started campaigning on Thursday.
“Both PKR and Barisan Nasional supporters have come by my operations centre in Prai since Aug 16 to offer their encouragement.
“I sincerely believe that people are disgusted and fed up with all the mudslinging between these parties - their style of campaigning is too much because it incites hatred. This is not our culture.
“Barisan and PKR may seem strong but they are rapuh (crumbling) because they practise the politics of hate,” he said, adding that voters “wanted” what Akim offered.
“They want and need what we offer – harmony and peace between all races in the context of Islam. I may not be from here but I am confident I will get the support of the locals because the basic ideology of Akim is applicable in all states and constituencies,” the former PAS man said.
Asked if his family was here to help campaign, he said his wife was back in Kelantan but two of his sons were with him here.
“Our campaign is to talk and explain our principles - not to criticise others,” he said.
Tarikh mengundi bawa banyak tuah: Arif Shah (Berita Harian Permatang Pauh)
BUKIT MERTAJAM: Tarikh pengundian pilihan raya kecil Permatang Pauh yang ditetapkan pada 26 Ogos ini yakin akan membawa tuah kepada Barisan Nasional (BN), kata calonnya Datuk Arif Shah Omar Shah.
Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (Adun) bagi Seberang Jaya berkata tarikh itu jika dicampur iaitu dua campur enam akan berjumlah lapan, dan bulan Ogos pula bulan ke lapan dan tahun ini pula 2008.
"Bagi kaum Cina tarikh yang mempunyai banyak angka lapan dianggap sebagai bertuah kerana dalam budaya kaum Cina bunyi angka itu sama dengan bunyi kejayaan dan kemewahan,” katanya di sini hari ini.
Arif Shah, yang bersekolah di Sekolah Rendah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina sejak sekolah rendah hingga menengah, berharap tarikh berkenaan akan bakal membawa kejayaan kepadanya.
Beliau juga yang dikenali di kalangan pengundi Permatang Pauh sebagai OCBC, “orang Cina bukan Cina”, berkata sebagai seorang Islam, beliau bagaimanapun menyerahkan segala-galanya kepada Allah S.W.T akan takdir yang ditentukan terhadap dirinya.
“Sekiranya sesuatu yang baik berlaku kepada saya berdasarkan kepada angka-angka tersebut maka ia adalah sesuatu yang kebetulan,” katanya.
Arif Shah, yang berhadapan dengan calon Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim dan calon Angkatan Keadilan Insan Malaysia (Akim), Hanafi Mamat pada pilihan raya kecil Selasa ini, juga yakin nombor tiga yang diberikan oleh Suruhanjaya Pilihan Raya (SPR) dalam susunan atur nama calon memberinya kelebihan.
Katanya bagi orang Cina nombor tiga bermakna “bukit” dan membawa tuah dan menambah kata: “Awal-awal lagi telah diberikan indikasi bahawa kita berada di kemuncak bukit.”
Menyentuh mengenai kempennya di saat-saat akhir pengundian, Arif Shah berkata beliau kini terpaksa mengubah sedikit strategi berkempennya untuk mengelak diambil kesempatan oleh PKR. - Bernama
Bertaubatlah Arif dan Hanafi
