Summary
The Johor Fatwa Committee decided that the request to amend the earlier fatwa cannot be granted. The cemetery land had been ruled as istifadhah waqf land. The only exception is if the application is made by the original owner of the land. The applicant is advised to first settle all sale and purchase matters with the original owner.
