Summary

The Penang State Fatwa Committee agreed to the terms and conditions of the project, described as the first Shariah-compliant hospital in Penang, to be built on Lot 3096, Bayan Baru. The approval takes into account the long-term financial benefit to the waqf landowner, the Penang Islamic Religious Council. The development must also balance the physical and the spiritual, and give Muslims in Penang the opportunity to obtain healthcare services according to Shariah.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
