Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee ruled that it is permissible for the Johor Islamic Religious Council to accept strata title for the purpose of a mosque waqf in the Komtar JBCC building. When the time comes to build the mosque, Damansara Aset Sendirian Berhad (DASB) must obtain the Council's approval. The approval is to consider whether a mosque is needed at that place and time.
