KUALA TERENGGANU, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang said his position was not affected although certain quarters had portrayed otherwise.
He said the grassroots and party leaders, including spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat's support for him was still strong.
Abdul Hadi said although he had differences of opinions with Nik Abdul Aziz, they had been resolved.
"We are very close as we stick through thick and thin. Although we have differences of opinions, we stand united. It gets better when he (Nik Abdul Aziz) accepted the resolutions passed at a PAS seminar recently," he told reporters here on Friday.
Nik Abdul Aziz had asked PAS to convene an extraordinary general meeting to allow delegates to decide on the position of certain leaders regarded as problematic, including those seen as pro-Umno.
Instead, a political seminar was held on Nov 7 to address the issue.
On bai'ah (pledge) of loyalty to the party, Abdul Hadi said it was not against Islam.
"Bai'ah 'talak tiga' (three counts of utterances to divorce the wife) is not a policy or concept in PAS." he said.
