Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee did not agree to the proposal to develop both waqf lots simultaneously. The two lands were endowed separately with their own waqf conditions, so developing one must not affect or reduce the benefit of the other. Joint development was stated to reduce the returns to Masjid Bayan Lepas as the beneficiary and to contradict the wishes of the founder of Lot 60. The development of Lot 60 must also be examined in detail so that the trust and conditions set by the founder are preserved.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
