Summary
This Bayan Linnas is general advice rather than a ruling on a specific legal matter. Muslims are reminded to preserve unity and peace, avoid spreading slander, and not be swayed by viral content that can provoke anger and resentment. They are also urged to show good character, forgive others, trust the authorities, learn from countries torn by conflict, and pray for their hearts to be united.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kemuliaan hakiki di kalangan kita adalah yang paling 'bertaqwa'. Itulah penilaian sebenar di sisi Allah
