'''Khalid bin Abdul Samad''' ([[Jawi alphabet|Jawi]]: خالد بن عبدالصمد; born 14 August 1957) is a [[Malaysian people|Malaysian]] [[politician]] who served as the [[Minister of Federal Territories (Malaysia)|Minister of Federal Territories]] in the [[Pakatan Harapan]] (PH) administration under former Prime Minister [[Mahathir Mohamad]] from July 2018 to the collapse of the [[Pakatan Harapan|PH]] administration in February 2020. He has served as the [[Member of Parliament]] (MP) for [[Shah Alam (federal constituency)|Shah Alam]] since March 2008. He is a member and Communications Director of the [[National Trust Party (Malaysia)|National Trust Party]] (AMANAH), a component party of the [[Pakatan Harapan|PH]] opposition coalition and was a member of the [[Malaysian Islamic Party]] (PAS), a former component party of the former [[Pakatan Rakyat]] (PR) and [[Barisan Alternatif]] (BA) opposition coalitions.

He is the younger brother of [[Shahrir Abdul Samad]], former Minister and [[Member of Parliament|MP]] of the [[United Malays National Organisation]] (UMNO), a component party of the [[Barisan Nasional]] (BN) coalition. They are opposing politically as both of them are in different political sides.<ref name="Steering PAS">{{cite news|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/9/30/focus/2148171&sec=focus |title=Steering PAS westward |last=Raslan |first=Karim |date=30 September 2008 |work=[[The Star (Malaysia)|The Star]] |access-date=22 January 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110604011457/http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=%2F2008%2F9%2F30%2Ffocus%2F2148171&sec=focus |archive-date= 4 June 2011 }}</ref>

==Early life==
Khalid was born in Kota Bharu, [[Kelantan]] in 1957.<ref name="personal blog">{{cite web|url=http://www.khalidsamad.com/2008/06/sunday-april-6-2008-on-different-paths.html|title=Khalid Samad – official blog|access-date=22 January 2010}}</ref>

He graduated with a degree in Fuel and Energy Engineering from [[Leeds University]] in 1979 and then worked for [[Petronas]].<ref name="personal blog"/>

==Political career==
He was a columnist at ''[[The Malaysian Insider]]'' and a prominent member of the moderate wing of [[Malaysian Islamic Party|PAS]] before they split to found [[National Trust Party (Malaysia)|AMANAH]] in 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/index.php/opinion/khalid-samad |title=Malaysian Insider: Khalid Samad |publisher=Malaysian Insider |access-date=22 January 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100201175410/http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/index.php/opinion/khalid-samad |archive-date= 1 February 2010 }}</ref>

Khalid joined PAS in 1983 and became a central committee member from 1987 to 1993.<ref name="Steering PAS"/>
In 1987, he was detained for nine months under the [[Internal Security Act (Malaysia)|Internal Security Act]] (ISA) during [[Operation Lalang]] crackdown.<ref name="Steering PAS"/>

He had unsuccessfully contested as PAS candidate the parliamentary seats of [[Kuala Krai]] (1986), [[Arau]] (1990), [[Sri Gading]] (1999) and Shah Alam (2004) in the general elections before finally won the Shah Alam seat in the [[2008 Malaysian general election|2008 general election]] and retained it in the [[2013 Malaysian general election|2013 general election]].<ref name="Steering PAS"/>

In 2010, Khalid became engaged in a debate with fellow opposition (later pro-government independent) Member of Parliament [[Zulkifli Nordin]] over the use of the word "Allah" by non-Muslims. After Khalid stated that he opposed a [[Selangor]] law that prohibited non-Muslims from using the word "Allah", Zulkifli lodged a police report accusing Khalid of sedition.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2010/1/23/nation/20100123213613&sec=nation |title=PKR's Zulkifli Noordin files police report against PAS' Khalid Samad |last=Habibu |first=Sira |date=23 January 2010 |work=[[The Star (Malaysia)|The Star]] |access-date=24 January 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100126072510/http://www.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=%2F2010%2F1%2F23%2Fnation%2F20100123213613&sec=nation |archive-date=26 January 2010 }}</ref> Zulkifi, a [[Kedah]] MP, moved to Selangor to run in the Shah Alam seat against Khalid in the [[2013 Malaysian general election|2013 election]] as a [[Barisan Nasional]] (BN) candidate, but was beaten by Khalid who was re-elected with an increased margin.

In August 2014, Khalid was charged under Section 4 of the Sedition Act for allegedly questioning the executive powers of the Selangor Islamic Religious Department (Jais) in relation to the confiscation of Malay-language and Iban-language bibles. Khalid was among several other opposition politicians as well as non-politicians arrested in the [[2014 Malaysian sedition dragnet]].<ref name="khalidsamad">{{cite web|url=http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/pass-khalid-samad-charged-for-sedition |title=PAS's Khalid Samad charged with sedition |date=26 August 2014 |publisher=The Malaysian Insider |access-date=9 September 2014 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140911001847/http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/pass-khalid-samad-charged-for-sedition |archive-date=11 September 2014 }}</ref>

Khalid again managed to retain the Shah Alam seat in the [[2018 Malaysian general election|2018 general election]] but the first time for the Amanah party and was soon selected as the new PH coalition federal government cabinet minister.
