Summary

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru, mana-mana orang Islam dilarang memiliki, menyimpan, mencetak semula, menjual, mengedarkan kad azimat tersebut dan orang Islam yang telah terlibat hendaklah segera bertaubat dengan taubat nasuha.
