Facebook users have threatened Alvin Tan for 'disrespecting' Islam by 'singing' the Azan.
KUALA LUMPUR April 21, 2015:
Alvin Tan has courted controversy yet again after posting a video of himself singing the Azan to the tune of a piano.
The two minute fifty second video features Alvin without his shirt, playing an electronic keyboard while “singing” the Azan.
Facebook users have started threatening him for “disrespecting” Islam by singing the Azan in that manner.
Wazlina Lee has asked for Tan to be beheaded alive.
“I don’t why.. I got this feeling Alvin Tan. Sorry to say yea. It’s better those IS people kill U Alvin Tan. I feel so good if you die beheaded alive. I won’t feel pity, for someone like you to be dead like that”.
Aznam Al-Capone Aman commented, “One day u will be killed.”
Ku Sopik said “Someone must kill this pig.”
Syah Putra commented, “Fu*k you Alvin Tan for playing it like this….somebody is gonna kill you….wait and see”.
Hakim Myra said, “You are so dead bruhh.. get ready to be famous and be dead.. really be dead bruhh.. anyways, your voice totally sucks to the core. So be prepared to die soon. Yahooo!”
Tan’s video has garnered 123,000 views and 4,100 shares and 706 likes so far, with loads of comments.
He posted the video with the following status:
“Have you had your dose of Allahuakbar for the day!? This is dedicated to the one and only true God, Allah s.w.t., peace be upon Him! And please don’t badger me about the wrong lyrics… First, this is a cover, so creative modification is permitted. Second, I ain’t a suicide bomber alright.
“My latest goal is to get all mosques in Malaysia to play my cover instead of having them old geezers hunched over the mics, straining their vocal chords and cracking their voices. Let them geezers rest already… preferably in eternal peace.”
Tan fled to the United States last May after being charged with sedition.
