Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the application to build an Islamic and Quranic studies centre on this land. The approval was given because the land was found to be general waqf (Wakaf Am), not specific waqf (Wakaf Khas) as previously reported. Permission to build remains subject to the approval and consent of the Penang Islamic Religious Council (MAINPP).
