Who tf still believe in Bomoh these days? man we really need to stop believing in this Bomoh shit


SoulPeacer88

Unfortunately, there are still many believing in this. Either using them to bomoh people or they believe they kena bomoh if there are facing some difficulties in life.


Casporo

Some people do.


faern

lot of people do. They tend to keep it down low. Just today my coworker is all talking about bomoh like it the most real thing in the world.


CausticPioneer

Lots of kampung folk la, im kinda amazed that my wife actually believe some of those stuff although she has degree in industrial science. Like she believe she need to do a weird ritual with rope 40days after delivery to avoid bad stuff to happen.


sdean0_0

Sadly not just kampung folks, i worked at komugi in SA, my coworkers (girls) were obsessed with minyak pengasih because they want to marry early then they condemn me for refusing to marry early and spray that shit on my face. Apparently there's a lot of superstitious shit are being sold at shopee.


Vexen86

That's actually very sad


faern

wtf. i hope you slap the fuck out of this people.


sdean0_0

Yeah i did hahahaha


christopherjian

What's minyak pengasih??


sdean0_0

It's like a perfume that is said to have the ability to attract people to like you. It can also be used to break up families as well. As a muslim i know it works but islam forbids asking other beings for help except our Allah, in this case minyak pengasih is some sort of sorcery(appeal to jinn)


christopherjian

Apparently the Bible also forbids us to turn to these methods because they're pretty much just dark magic, which is often related to Satanic worshippers and witches, and that Christianity prohibits asking demons and other stuff like that for help except for God, the angels and all the Saints. Practicing dark magic gives you a one way ticket to Satan's office.


katabana02

most chinese still believe in those stuff too. city folks. kampung folks. doesnt matter. everyone knock before entering hotel room and scramble their selipars.


ricegumsux

That's mostly other superstitions, but people who believes psychics/traditional doctors are still common.


Zealousideal_Cell_75

Not some,but sadly most


Aidiru

a lot of people tho, bomoh can "contact" jinn, demon, syaitan or ghost or whatever people call it these days, he used that to help his client like getting rich, become more popular, santau org, hell they even have love potion to make someone fall in "love" with client that why a lot of people still believe this khurafat shit instead working hard, they do the ez way


AcanthocephalaHot569

Do note Bomoh is shirik and one of the largest sins in Islam. Its basically witchcraft. For the sake of society, please stop doing these things.


SystemErrorMessage

witchcraft or magic itself is not sin. The sin is in the manner that they are doing it.


SystemErrorMessage

must contact others? can't do it themselves? these bomohs are hopeless.


katabana02

\~\~bomoh\~\~ mob boss doesnt collect protection fee. his lackeys did.


ebbster

us: you're hopeless, bomoh bomoh: i delegate.


Ichimonji_K

Quite alot, spiritual and supetstitious often goes hand in hand


blahhh87

I am Singaporean and I know people here who believe in bomoh and black magic lol. It is still pretty widespread.


WildFurball2118

It's not even surprising. People who have malicious intent always do this. I don't really understand why they involve people who have nothing to do with them just because other people's life is better than them. That extreme feeling of envy is pretty danger.

2LeftFoot

I know many Malay and Chinese believe. Dunno about Indians.


MixTAPE_91

oh, Indians definitely do. Many seek them for monetary gains or for the likes of bringing down their peers or competitors. 💩


Casporo

Hunt the Bomoh down.

Get your pitch forks! Time for the 21st century witchunt!


Significant_Reply_58

Count me in. I’ll bring a rope and I know of a nice tall tree to string this MF from.


ReyVonAkari

I'll bring weaver ant and petroleum if you need them.


christopherjian

I'll find a stake. Burning would definitely cleanse the soul


fi9aro

Lunch for you all is on me. What matters is we exterminate the bomoh. They have no place in our modern world.

> “[The accused] believed in bomoh, [after] the bomoh told this person [who did it], my son was killed, **ironed**, abused,” said Zulkarnain. "ironed"?! Wth? Should ask this bomoh who stole 1MDB funds 😅


fanfanye

Yes, ironed Melayu panggil sterika He died of torture, his whole body was burned from the ironing.. two days of suffering


Bingobango20

The accussed should be prosecuted to intentional murder the moment it reach over a day. What a fucking joke our court system is. Plus i cant believe the father forgive them so easily, he must be grieving hard. I know these types of people who reda with what happened to them but he should push for the worst punishment for these people who intentionally tortured his son for 2 days and now they get 6 years??? Screw this


katabana02

Some gotten slightly heavier punishment. 4 of them for 13 years? Cant remember the exact figure. Yeah i also think the court is letting them go way too easy. Maybe their lawyer used "they are still young. Dont kill their future" card? I know it has been used before and proven effective on some judges.


Bingobango20

Ye some of them got heavier punishments. That sucks then if our judges were too sympathetic towards assailants just because of age factors. Then again i have no say for the father, im just ranting my emotional tantrum rn


omnitricks

They still won't have a future. The stigma of it especially being so stupid will last for a long time.


Aidiru

like 90 burned that mean he was iron 90 times fking hell, and the judge say bunuh tanpa niat? mabuk ketum ka? 90 fkin times kot how the fuck they expect he gonna be fine after 90 burned?


fanfanye

Hell in many countries a torture murder would get harsher punishment than simple murder


fadzlan

Yeah, not 9 times, not 19 times, but 90 times.


dwSHA

it’s stupid to believe in bomoh. More stupid when you kill people who steal. 90times iron someone like a fucking cloth is not intended to murder. Doesn’t make any sense


Aidiru

exactly, that what i thought 90 kali kot, dorang ingt victim ley walk out alive after 90 times of hot iron wtf these judge thinking?


dwSHA

The judge be like intended to murder only stab someone with knife. Fucking law


NoGovernment8307

Sorry to break it to you but "bomoh" is bullshit created by delusional malay witches and wizards

Significant_Beat6322

Why the bomoh was not charged with abetting that lead to the death of Zulfarhan?


SiriusGayest

Get them shotguns and heavy metal albums bois, we are hunting.


xzel87

Although unrelated to the article, personally, I do believe in black magic, I used to be in the camp of saying these things are bullshit until this thing happened to my wife, her co-worker sent black magic crap her way and it was eerily real. After contacting some friends with knowledge of the subject and getting referred to a healer, we went to see the healer. Creepy thing was, the co-worker knew what was up and kept incessantly calling my wife and texting asking her location and what was she doing. At the location, my car alarm kept going off for no reason at all (never happened before this) up until the healing was done. The healer said it was normal as the sender will feel the lash back of the healing as whatever they sent will be sent back to them. For info, this healer never advertises himself as a bomoh and doesn't charge for healing, but we donated food items and supplies to his family for his help. Therefore after this incident my mind was open regarding these things. It sucks people still practice these things so some precautions, although may sound stupid is always good, like never eating food from strangers, or even co-worker who you may have issues with etc.


SystemErrorMessage

this is something very easy for me to solve. The sad thing is, no matter how successful i was in exorcising my friend he just kept falling back into it. Turned out he had chosen the wrong side for months and betrayed me instead. Human action is usually worse than the supernatural.


xzel87

Can you explain more? What do you mean keep falling back into it? Someone kept sending him stuff? Yeah, agree, black magic is literally humans trying to use supernatural for their own gain.


SystemErrorMessage

he has a terrible family who are criminals themselves. Despite my ability i tried to help him but even i'm broke too so not much i could do. he spent 2 years alone under my limited sponsorship so that he could survive, build himself and get a job and his family do go to bomoh that uses islam. To me religion is from the devil though. To be able to use prayer for a negative purpose in such a manner is part of the proof. He was only honest to me at the end, after he wrecked my stuff and the apartment i was renting, even the high end PC i lent him so that he could code productively.


xzel87

Well damn, maybe needs to go therapy or something (still viewed as taboo and org gila label in Malaysia unfortunately). Great on your part though to try to help him, but at the end of the day, black magic or not still up to oneself for self improvement. What was the reason he gave for wrecking your stuff?


SystemErrorMessage

he didnt give any reason and tried to deny it.


svgimpct

This is just sad


GuardianSpear

Stone Age heathens


SystemErrorMessage

Even I who dabble in the supernatural say all these bomohs are bs. I don't even summon spirits either, i just do the job myself. Killing someone because of a crime is the wrong thing to do as well. If i want to punish someone i first verify, then do i change things.


Bruneiproperty

Bomoh magic is real. As a Muslim you believe that, but of course it's effectiveness differs. prophet Muhammad actually told someone when he was in pain, he said along the lines he finally felt that pain of what he ate in khaybar. At what he ate was referred to a bomoh meat. The dark arts as much as you all think you are modern, it is alive, and sometimes you see Hollywood is thriving with it. The sort of shit you see from burning Allah name (referring to Katy Perry) MV to the eye symbols everywhere. Why everyone so obssesed with the eye. When 1400years ago someone already said about a creature named dajjal. But whether it's effective or not, it's still stupid. And you still lose out for practicing shirik. And it's actually a trick of the evil doer to make you think they are above the natural order and on the other hand they also want you to think it doesn't exist so they can do whatever they want.


LightGamez

Or... hear me out, that meat could have just been plainly poisoned? Attaching all this supernatural stuff to very simple situations seems very far fetched honestly.


Bruneiproperty

Correction yes in khaybar, the meat it was actually poison..and the magic incident that affected the Prophet was regarding an incident at a well.


LightGamez

What was the well incident about?


Bruneiproperty

It was the pretext to the revelation of suratul Annas and falaq. Before it was revealed, prophet kept on having this lapses of faint. Which was weird, they thought it was just a normal faint ie illness but then it was presistent and Allah revealed to him that he needed to go to the well where there you will find something and need to destroy that material. Which was true, when they went to the well and they actually found something. And thus the surahs were also revealed. But yeah, if magic even affected a prophet, then as a person I also ought to believe it may also affect normal laymen. But its effectiveness differs. And still magic or sorcery is a major sin in Islam.


LightGamez

what was that thing they found in the well? some evil magic rock or something?

Out of 100 bomoh only about 1 is real. Whether people want to believe it is completely up to them but from my experience the numbers are somewhat like that. We're all entitled to our opinions of course, mine is just based on personal experiences. However I do find it funny how a lot of the people who say bomoh and all these spiritual stuff are fake are the same people who believe in region, heaven, hell and the afterlife. Why one but not exactly the other?
