At that time, Ummi Hafilda was a much younger lady. She came forward to become 
the main witness in the trial case of Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim. At that time 
Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim was the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia and Ummi 
Hafilda was about to disclose all the secrets she has about the misbehaviors of 
Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim. Even Tun Dr Mahathir, who was at that time the Prime 
Minister of Malaysia did not believe what was about to be disclosed by Ummi 
Hafilda. Due to her persistence, patients, and her believe, Dato’ Seri Anwar 
Ibrahim was finally sentenced to six years imprisonment. It was the trial of 
the 
year. Most newspapers of the world covered the trial case. Because of the 
trial, 
Ummi Hafilda’s name raised to fame. Prior to the trial, she was only an 
ordinary 
young woman who was running her own business. In the seemingly naïve-looking 
young lady, lies the heart that is stronger than steel, lies the mind that is 
sharper than knives. Allah has used her to become the main witness in the most 
historic court case in Malaysia. Because she was the main witness in the court 
case, she had undergone untold sufferings and troubles. Paparazzi followed her 
and tried to cause trouble to her, yet she remained steadfast in her belief 
that 
Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim had committed a very serious crime. She received many 
death threats and attempts to bribe her from her own brother. She had to move 
many times from one house to another house in different locations in a span of 
one year and her car was burned to ashes. At such a young age, Ummi Hafilda had 
undergone such troubles, only to prove to the court that Dato’ Seri Anwar had 
committed a grieve offence that finally led the court to sentence Dato’ Seri 
Anwar to six years imprisonment.
After years of silence and away from the limelight, once again Ummi Hafilda 
makes a comeback to the public attention when Dato’ Seri Anwar once again was 
brought to the trial. Ummi Hafilda has threatened to disclose all the secrets 
that she knows about the sodomy case trial that involved Dato’ Seri Anwar in 
1998. She wants the sodomy case trial to be presented to the young generation 
of 
today in the forms of videos and films. She believes in doing so, it will 
explain the sodomy case trial in a clearer and more accurate manner. She 
believes it is her responsibility to explain to the younger generation the 
reasons for her serious involvement in the Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s sodomy 
case. Many are skeptical about her sincerity. Many are questioning her 
integrity. Some have accused her to be a prostitute while some had accused her 
to have been involved in love affairs with so many men, including Dato’ Seri 
Anwar Ibrahim. She believes the time has come to clear her names from the 
various allegations and she wants the truth of the story to be revealed to the 
public. Ummi Hafilda must have been waiting for this precious moment to reveal 
the truth that only she knows. All this while, she must have been keeping all 
the true stories only to herself. Allah has gave her the time and the 
opportunity to reveal the true stories about what actually had happened in 1998 
that finally lead to the dismissal and imprisonment of Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
It was really a tragic situation that no one can ever imagine to happen to 
Dato’ 
Seri Anwar. Dato’Seri Anwar had been dreaming to become the Prime Minister of 
Malaysia but the dream had turned to become a nightmare for Dato’ Seri Anwar, 
his family and friends. Who was instrumental in turning the dream to become a 
nightmare? The person was no other than the young naïve-looking girl by the 
name 
of Ummi Hafilda. Thus, naturally, besides Tun Dr Mahathir, Ummi Hafilda has 
become one of the most hated persons by Dato’ Seri Anwar, his family members 
and 
his supporters. All the dreams of the followers of Dato’ Seri Anwar had 
shattered to ashes. The person who has been instrumental in the downfall of 
Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim was Ummi Hafilda. Naturally she is the most hated 
person in the life of Dato’ Seri Anwar, his family members and supporters. Ummi 
Hafilda has no followers to support her in her struggle to achieve justice. She 
revealed about her lone struggle against the aggressions and the humiliations 
done to her by Dato’ Seri Anwar and his supporters. Many people love Dato’ Seri 
Anwar and supported him but none including UMNO members had supported Ummi 
Hafilda during her tribulations. Almost all PAS, Jemaah Tabligh and ABIM 
members 
and many others supported Dato’ Seri Anwar. Many has supported Dato’ Seri Anwar 
because they think that Dato Seri Anwar is a true Islamic leader while Ummi 
Hafilda, by her outward appearance, appears unreligious and un-Islamic. Ummi 
Hafilda does not cover her hair while the wife and daughters of Dato’ Seri 
cover 
their hairs. Because of the outward unreligious appearance of Ummi Hafilda, 
many 
decided not to believe what she has said.
I have said in my previous articles, that Malays are very much into cosmetic 
and 
superficial appearance. Malays care more about appearance than reality. Malays 
have proverb which says; Biar Papa Asal Bergaya. A person who knows how to look 
rich, pious or religious can easily deceive the Malays. Jemaah Al-Arqam and 
Tabligh have been successful in influencing the Malays to join them because 
they 
have been good at showing pious outward appearances through their clothing and 
minor Islamic practices. When peoples observe them wearing Islamic attires and 
giving great attention to minor Islamic practices, then they think that these 
people must be giving much more attention to greater Islamic practices. Looking 
at the outward appearance of Ummi Hafilda, many Malays will jump to the 
conclusion that Ummi Hafilda and Tun Dr Mahathir are unreligious persons 
because 
they do not appear pious outwardly especially through their attires. The action 
of Ummi Hafilda to bring Dato’ Seri Anwar to the court was looked upon by many 
Malays as the action of an unreligious person. Many Malays jeered at her and 
they regarded all the evidences that she had thrown against Dato’ Seri Anwar 
was 
a perjury and falsehood. Many Malays believe the words of Dato’ Seri Anwar more 
than the words of Ummi Hafilda because Dato’ Seri Anwar look more religious 
than 
Ummi Hafilda. When Dato’ Seri Anwar gave speeches, it was accompanied with 
verses of the Quran and the Hadis of Prophet Muhammad saw. Who could have 
believed such horrendous actions such as sodomy could have been done by Dato’ 
Seri Anwar who appears to be so knowledgeable about Islam.
Can Ummi Hafilda and Tun Dr Mahathir match the pious appearance of Dato Seri 
Anwar? Certainly cannot. Many people can be easily deceived by outward 
appearance. The first order of Allah upon Muslims is not to change the outward 
appearance but to invite people to recite the Great Kalimah and the second 
order 
is to perform the five times daily prayer. To invite people to recite the Great 
Kalimah is also the work of inviting people to good and forbidding people from 
evils. The greatest evil that Dato’ Seri Anwar does is not doing the work of 
inviting people to good and forbidding the evils. Instead of forbidding the 
evils, Dato’ Seri Anwar himself is involved in evils deed. As a Deputy Prime 
Minister, the evils deeds that Dato Seri Anwar do could affect a great circle 
but had he become the Prime Minister, the evils deed will affect a much greater 
circle. Ummi Hafilda and Tun Dr Mahathir have the courage and the bravery to 
prevent the evil deeds from spreading by preventing Dato’ Seri Anwar from 
becoming the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Ummi Hafilda and Tun Dr Mahathir was 
not able to stop Dato’ Seri Anwar from committing the evil deeds but they were 
successful in preventing the evil deeds from spreading to a wider circle by 
preventing Dato’ Seri Anwar from becoming the Prime Minister of Malaysia. What 
Ummi Hafilda had done was highly courageous. She tried to stop someone powerful 
from becoming more powerful. Indeed the work needs courage and Ummi Hafilda has 
been instrumental in carrying-out the great task. With the help of Allah, she 
did it marvelously. Ummi Hafilda has been the mean to the downfall of Dato’ 
Seri 
Anwar Ibrahim. She described herself as Serikandi and that title fit her. 
During 
the great trial, Ummi Hafilda has continuously sought the help of Allah. She 
did 
mention in her articles that she used to wake up at 4am in the early morning, 
to 
pray Tahajjud. This story reveals the fact that, although Ummi Hafilda is not 
wearing a tudung but she guards her prayers and she struggled to stop evils 
from 
spreading. The order of inviting people to good and forbidding the evils and 
the 
order of performing five times prayers relatively are greater orders of Allah 
compared to the order of covering the hair or wearing a tudung. Although the 
order of wearing a tudung is relatively a smaller order of Allah but to most 
Muslims, it is a great order and a sign of religiousness. Many Muslims believe 
that the order of wearing tudung is greater than the order of forbidding the 
evils and performing daily prayers. Many Muslims think and believe that a 
person 
who is wearing tudung is a religious person even though she may not be 
performing prayers and  is constantly doing evils. On the other hand many 
Muslims think and believe that a person like Ummi Hafilda, who is doing the 
work 
of preventing the evils from spreading and performing five times daily prayers 
but is not wearing tudung as unreligious.
Because Ummi Hafilda is not wearing a tudung, many think of her as not 
religious 
and they decided not to believe whatever she said and they called her with so 
many bad names. Wearing a tudung but do not perform daily prayers and do not 
forbid evils is not a sign of piety. Inviting people to good and forbidding 
people from evils and performing five times prayers are signs of piety. Wearing 
tudung is relatively a smaller order of Allah and many can easily wear a tudung 
but not everybody can do the things that Ummi Hafilda has done. May Allah 
Showers His blessings upon her.
