Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the application to repair Masjid Khairi on condition that the waqf items are disposed of according to the prescribed method. Building materials that are still usable are handed over to any mosque or surau that needs them. If there is none, they are sold to anyone who is of age and sound mind regardless of religion, and the proceeds are used for developing mosques or suraus. Materials that can no longer be used may be buried or left on the mosque grounds to decay naturally, and must not be burned.
