Summary

The Penang Syar'iyyah Committee was informed that some mosque imams in North Seberang Perai still held congregational Zohor prayers after the Friday prayer. The committee decided that these imams should be summoned for discussion in order to remove confusion and slander among the Muslim public. The date, time and venue were to be fixed later. The decision does not give a detailed ruling on the prayer itself.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Ahli Jawatankuasa Syar'iyyah memutuskan bahawa imam-imam ini patut dipanggil untuk berbincang dengan Ahli Jawatankuasa Syar'iyyah demi untuk menghapuskan kekeliruan dan fitnah dikalangan orang awam Islam.
