Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee is of the view that a mechanism should be created to control the existence of tahfiz institutes in the state. The reason is doubt over the collection of funds, contributions and public donations by certain parties. The meeting also feared fraud and misappropriation that could bring slander upon the religion.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Mesyuarat memberi pandangan agar diwujudkan suatu kaedah bagi mengawal kewujudan Maahad Tahfiz di Pulau Pinang kerana terdapat keraguan dari segi kutipan, sumbangan dan derma orang ramai dan pihak-pihak tertentu.
