The Penang State Fatwa Committee, at its meeting on 28 September 2011, did not approve holding Friday prayers separately at the two mosques. The reason given is that there was no evidence of overflowing congregations at either Kapitan Keling Mosque or Melayu Lebuh Acheh Mosque.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
tidak bersetuju untuk memberi kebenaran bagi mengadakan Solat Jumaat Secara Berasingan Di Antara Masjid Kapitan Keling dan Masjid Melayu Lebuh Acheh kerana tiada bukti yang menunjukkan kehadiran jemaah yang melimpah di kedua-dua masjid berkenaan.
