Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the application to hold Friday prayers at the surau of the Serenti Centre. The approval was given for security reasons, so that trainees can be supervised and prevented from escaping if the prayers were held outside the centre. It also serves to teach trainees about the obligation of Friday prayers as part of their treatment and rehabilitation.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kelulusan ini diberi kerana untuk menjaga keselamatan supaya pelatih-pelatih dapat dikawal dan mengelakkan mereka dari melarikan diri jika solat Jumaat dilakukan di Iuar pusat.
