Summary
The Johor Fatwa Committee approved guidelines for dissolving Quran ash bricks as an act of honouring them, with several amendments. Ash from disposal is formed into bricks with clean water by handlers who are properly dressed and in a state of wudu, then stored in closed containers at a designated place. The bricks are released in open sea more than 15 nautical miles from the jetty, away from shipping lanes and at least five metres deep, accompanied by Quran recitation, prayers and salawat, in cooperation with the relevant agencies.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
