Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee ruled that the Qadiani/Ahmadiah teaching is deviant and outside Islam. Its followers are regarded as having left Islam, cannot enjoy the rights of a Muslim including burial in Islamic cemeteries, and are deemed apostates. Muslims are prohibited from selling, distributing, owning or spreading related books, publications and symbols, and all parties are barred from helping its spread in the state. Muslims who have practised it must repent promptly, and offenders may face action under the laws in force.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Ajaran Qadiani/Ahmadiah adalah sesat dan terkeluar daripada ajaran Islam.
