Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee did not approve holding Friday prayers at this surau. The first reason is that the surau is unsuitable to become a mosque because it also functions as a tahfiz school. The second reason is that it is only 1.9 km from Masjid Umar Abdul Aziz, Batu Maung, which is relatively close.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
