Summary

The Penang State Fatwa Committee meeting No. 2/2018 did not yet issue a ruling on relocating the old grave. The District Religious Administration Officer of Seberang Perai Tengah must search the original land grant at the Penang Land and Mines Office to confirm the true status of the land. The findings are to be reported to the Penang State Mufti Department so the matter can be discussed again at a later meeting.
