Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee decided that the IKM Johor Bahru surau is permitted to hold Friday prayers until a contrary declaration is made. Before the prayers begin, the community, especially resident locals, must be informed. On the first Friday, the District Kadi must declare the surau a temporary Friday prayer venue on behalf of the Johor Islamic Religious Council.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
"Surau Institut Kemahiran Malaysia (IKM), Johor Bahru diberi kebenaran untuk mendirikan solat Jumaat sehingga satu pengisytiharan sebaliknya dilakukan."
