Summary

The Tashih al-Mafahim column was created by the Research Unit (Unit Buhuth) of the Federal Territories Mufti Office to address religious extremism and radical thinking, and to straighten public understanding according to the standards of the sharia. It differs from the al-Afkar column, which focuses more on issues of creed, faith and disbelief. The office also welcomes suggestions, views and questions from all parties on related issues.

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

Ruangan ini berbeza dengan kolum al-Afkar kerana ia lebih kepada isu-isu berkaitan aqidah, iman dan kufur.
