Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee agreed to the setting of conditions for the waqf offer of Lot 2242, Mukim 2, Central Seberang Perai, for a surau site and other religious activities. The conditions apply only before the waqf contract (aqad) takes place. When the waqf is made, the donor may not impose a time-limited condition.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Syarat ini hanya terpakai sebelum berlaku aqad wakaf. Ketika wakaf dilakukan maka pihak pewakaf tidak boleh menetapkan syarat bertempoh.
