Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the renovation of Surau Salihin, Sungai Pinang, on condition that waqf materials are disposed of by the prescribed method. Usable materials are handed to any mosque or surau in need. If none needs them, the materials are sold to any person who is of age and sound mind, regardless of religion, and the proceeds go towards mosque development. Materials that can no longer be used may be buried or left on the grounds, but must not be burned.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
