Summary
The Selangor Fatwa Committee ruled that this teaching contradicts and deviates from true Islamic teachings. The reasons include adherence to Wahdatul Wujud, the Jabbariah doctrine and the Nur Muhammad concept, interpreting the Quran by rational logic, spreading religious pluralism, and a doubtful division of knowledge into sharia, hakikat and makrifat. Muslims are prohibited from practising, following, teaching, spreading or keeping materials related to the teaching and the book, and offenders may face legal action. Those who received its ijazah or practised it must repent promptly.
