Summary

The Johor Fatwa Committee decided that permission to hold Friday prayers at this surau cannot be considered. The reason is that the location does not meet the conditions for a valid Friday prayer under Islamic law. The surau should nevertheless be kept active with suitable religious programmes for Muslim employees.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Kebenaran untuk mendirikan solat Jumaat di surau al Falah Lotte Chemical Titan (M) Sdn Bhd Pasir Gudang Johor Bahru tidak dapat dipertimbangkan kerana ianya tidak menepati syarat sah Jumaat berdasarkan hukum syarak.
