Summary
The Council of Ulama of the Kelantan Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council, meeting on 28 January 1990, resolved that this book is prohibited from distribution. The decision rests on a review of Al-Arqam's deviations, including the belief that Muhammad bin Abdullah As-Suhaimi is the hidden Mahdi and the practice of tahdir aurah, which was judged misguided. All Al-Arqam publications, even those not bearing its name, are also banned, as is the publisher Prodescom Sdn. Bhd. Al-Arqam's activities are prohibited and government employees are required to leave the group.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
