Summary

The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the use of the mobile disposal machine created by the Johor State Islamic Religious Department with UTHM for disposing of old or damaged Qurans and publications containing Quranic verses and hadith. The approval is conditional. A committee must be formed to run the process, involving parties such as JHEAIPP, the Marine Department and the Ministry of Home Affairs, and an authority letter must first be obtained from the Ministry of Domestic Trade.

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