[edit] Sky Kingdom timeline
Ariffin Mohamad, the leader and the purported founder of Sky Kingdom was born in 1943 in Beris, Kampung Besar Bachok, Kelantan. In 1953 Ariffin became seriously ill, and he alleges that an angel had visited him. 20 years later, the angel returned and Ariffin began his spiritual career. In 1975, a spiritual group was formed in Bagan Lebai Tahir, Butterworth, Penang. Whether Ariffin was the founder is unclear; during this phase he may have been a follower of Hassan Tuhan (also known as Anak Rimau), apparently another claimant to divinity.
Around the mid-1980s, the Sky Kingdom commune was formed on its present site in Besut. Some reports state that the office of Islamic Affairs declared the group to be deviant at this time. In 1995, Sky Kingdom's signature building projects began, as per divine revelation. Two years later, Local Religious Affairs council (Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Agama Islam dan Adat Melayu Terengganu) issues a fatwa against the group. Around this time, four adherents were arrested for renouncing Islam. However, they were later freed on grounds that as ex-Muslims Malaysia's sharia court no longer enjoys jurisdiction over them.
In 2001, Ariffin renounced Islam. The Sharia court accused him of contravening Section 25 of the Enakmen Pentadbiran Hal Ehwal Agama Islam 1986 (Administration of Islamic Religious Affairs 1986), stating that his teachings and beliefs were false, deviant, corrupting and threatening to the public peace (membawa ancaman kepada ketenteraman orang awam serta merosakkan akidah.) He pleaded guilty to the charge of "belittling Islam" (menghina Islam), and is jailed for 11 months and fined RM 2,900. The Religious Affairs Office hoped that Ariffin's arrest would prevent the movement's growth; however, Sky Kingdom continued to attract new followers from among university students and Orang Asli. See interview by Danny Lim (link below).
On July 18, 2005, a group of masked vigilantes attack the group's headquarters, smashing windows and torching buildings. Three days later, 49 members arrested (including 3 of Ariffin's four wives). Ariffin escaped arrest (and remains at large). 45 of these face charge of failing to observe the government fatwa (i.e. for continuing to be members of a sect declared as deviant), which carries a fine up to RM 3,000 or two years in prison. One of those arrested faced an additional charge of "humiliating Islam" (for claiming not to be a Muslim). Court cases promise to revolve around the issue of religious freedom, which is theoretically guaranteed by the Malaysian constitution.
On August 1, 2005, officials of the Besut Land Office destroy Sky Kingdom's various buildings, citing Section 129 of the National Land Code (which punishes unauthorized construction with land confiscation). The titular landowner is Ariffin's first wife, who apparently failed to appear in court for a hearing on the matter. On September 1, 2005, at a hearing, a trial date for 45 followers accused of violating the government fatwa is set for three days beginning December 18 this year. All of the accused are represented by Wan Haidi Wan Jusoh of Ubaidullah Aziz and Co, who unsuccessfully petitioned the court to order his name blacked out by the media. The group had previously experienced great difficulty in attracting legal representation, presumably owing to attorneys' fear of reprisals or negative publicity.
As of 2007, after wide media coverage, the original Hulu Besut commune, now down to 24 souls, has reportedly chosen a new leader—a former police chief inspector in his 30's. The group is suspicious of visitors, and routinely turns out the commune's lights whenever a car approaches at night, in order not to be found.
