Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee decided that korban may be performed on Eid al-Adha and the three days of Tasyrik under tightened guidelines. Slaughter is to take place at abattoirs, licensed private ruminant slaughterhouses, and mosques or surau approved by the relevant authorities. Animals are limited to 5 except at permitted slaughterhouses, and workers must not exceed 10 persons who are healthy, Malaysian citizens and fully vaccinated with 2 doses. Implementation remains subject to the consideration of the state religious authority.
