Summary

The Penang State Fatwa Committee agreed to the proposal to establish a new parish at Taman Pelangi. The request to upgrade the surau building to a mosque was not approved until the District Religious Office and the parish obtain approval for ownership of the land next to the surau and have sufficient funds. The District Religious Administration Officer must submit a proposed boundary for the parish and letters or minutes of consent from the neighbouring mosque parishes involved.
