Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee deferred its decision on the application by the endower's heirs to administer this waqf land. The deferment lasts until the interpretation of the land's Indenture is reviewed by a language expert. In the meantime, the land must be used according to the stipulated Deed Reference 844/56 dated 10 March 1944.
