Summary
The Perlis Fatwa Committee sets general rules for mosques and suraus, including no party political activity, no smoking, no music in the mosque hall, and the duty to cover the awrah and uphold Islamic manners. Speakers must hold a Perlis teaching credential or obtain permission from the Mufti Department, and must not give party political speeches or false religious information. Unofficial tazkirah sessions require written permission from the mosque committee chairman, must be low-key without loudspeakers, and may only use reading material approved by the Mufti Department without personal commentary.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
