"I rarely write about my doa (prayers) on Twitter. However, only this time, I hope we all can pray for Tun Dr Mahathir's health and well-being.
"Our politics, policies and personalities can be different. But this human being has done so much for our country, religion and nation," he said.
Dr Mahathir holds the record as Malaysia's longest-serving prime minister. He is the only statesman who has led the administration in two separate tenures, from 1981 to 2003 and from 2018 to 2020.
He has also been cited as the factor that led to the success of Pakatan Harapan (PH) in the 2018 general election to wrest Putrajaya from Barisan Nasional (BN).
