Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee permitted the matriculation college surau to hold Friday prayers until a contrary declaration is made. Before the prayers begin, the congregation, especially residents of the area, must be informed. The first Friday prayer must be preceded by a declaration from the district kadi on behalf of the Johor Islamic Religious Council. The surau must also not display framed Quranic verses, calligraphy or digital wall clocks on the front wall or inside the main prayer hall.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
