Summary
The Perlis State Fatwa Committee, by majority, permitted the demolition of Masjid Al-Hakim Padang Malau. The reasons given were the mosque's inability to maintain the old building, an unsafe design, insufficient space for a growing congregation, inadequate other facilities, and unsuitable basic amenities such as toilets. The meeting also advised that mosques which remain structurally sound should not be demolished without a valid syarie reason.
