Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee has not yet approved the istibdal application for this surau. The application was deferred after new facts were presented at an earlier meeting. The MAINPP Waqf Division and the developer were asked to investigate further the status of the burial ground there and its relation to Lots 4690 and 4691.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
