Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved building the open hall at the back of the mosque, on land with Interim Register status registered as MAINPP waqf land. It cannot be built on lot 1382, Mukim 9, because that waqf land carries an express condition that it be used only as an Islamic burial ground. The congregation was also told to stop burials immediately on the Interim Register land, since its express condition is for mosque purposes only.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
