Summary
This Bayan Linnas examines Muslims praying on the same stage as non-Muslims from the standpoint of creed. Supplication is an act of worship reserved for Allah, so it must be performed according to the requirements of the Shariah at a suitable time, setting and place, and not as a cultural or customary event. The prayers of disbelievers are said to have no value with Allah based on Surah al-Ra'd verse 14, and Surah al-Kafirun is cited as the basis for disassociating from their worship.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Dalam hal ini, berdoa adalah termasuk dalam kategori ibadah.
