Summary

The Johor State Fatwa Committee ruled that building the Ibnu Sina Religious School on PTD 152726, the Kampung Pemuda Seelong mosque site, is permissible. The ruling rests on the maqasid of waqf, which is to benefit Muslims and prevent waqf property from deteriorating or being left unused. Development differing from the donor's original intention is allowed, provided it is based on needs determined by the Ulil Amri (ruling authority).

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