Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee did not approve the application to build a petrol station on part of Lot 694, Mukim 4 Penaga. The reason given is that the land was endowed as a waqf for a burial ground only. Constructing a building or petrol station on it could damage the character of the land. The decision was made at Meeting No. 4/2013 held on 12 to 13 September 2013.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
