Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee agreed in principle to demolishing the front of the mosque and building two additional floors. Detailed plans must be submitted to the State Mufti Department for a ruling before work begins, and permission from MAINPP is required under section 99(4) of the Administration of Islamic Religion Enactment 2004. Usable materials should be reused or given to another mosque, otherwise sold to a buyer who is of age and sound mind with the proceeds kept for the mosque, while unusable materials may be buried or left to decay and must not be burned.
