Summary
The Sabah State Fatwa Council ruled that the Qadiani teaching is a deviant doctrine that can lead to apostasy, and Muslims are forbidden from involvement in it.

Muslims are also barred from joining, leading, teaching or spreading it, and from owning, printing, selling or distributing related materials.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
