Summary
At its meeting on 6 September 2010, the committee did not immediately rule Pak Mus's practice to be deviant. It required further investigation, including into the background of his teacher, Kiai Haji Samsuri, and called for Pak Mus to be summoned to complete the inquiry and understand his healing methods. The committee also resolved to gazette the JAKIM Guidelines on Traditional Healing Practices.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
