Summary
This Bayan Linnas treats the Korean cult movement as a serious threat to social security and faith, especially for youth and university students. It describes tactics such as fear of the apocalypse, love bombing and mind control through information isolation. Rejecting it is stated to be part of religious duty, based on the finality of the Prophet Muhammad, Hifz al-Amn (preserving security) and Hifz al-Aql (preserving intellect). It calls on families and society to be vigilant, authorities to act firmly, and religious literacy education to be strengthened.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru itu, menolak gerakan ini adalah sebahagian daripada tuntutan agama demi maslahat umum.
