Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee ruled that the teachings of GISBH and its network continue the beliefs and practices of Darul Arqam and Rufaqa' Corporation, which had already been declared deviant. Among its features are the claim that Syeikh Muhammad Suhaimi will appear as Imam Mahdi, the claim that the leader's wash water and soaking water carry blessings, an oppressive economic system, and the Darul Arqam version of the Aurad Muhammadiah. Muslims are prohibited from practising, following, spreading, supporting or funding these teachings, or from possessing or distributing related materials. Those involved must repent promptly, and action may be taken under the laws in force in the state.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Mana-mana orang Islam yang telah menyertai atau mengamalkan atau berpegang kepada fahaman, ajaran, pegangan atau amalan ini hendaklah segera bertaubat dan memohon keampunan kepada Allah SWT.
