Summary
The Johor Fatwa Committee decided that the book on Ahli Sunnah Wal Jamaah creed based on the Ash'ari method (Dr. Basri bin Ibrahim, 2019) is misleading and its content contradicts the Ash'ari creed of Ahli Sunnah Wal Jamaah. The umrah guide book (Muhammad Abdul Qadir bin Ishak, 2019) does not conform to the established rulings on performing umrah. Both books are prohibited from being distributed, sold, kept, published or reprinted in any form in Johor. This decision has not been gazetted.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru, buku-buku ini dilarang dan tidak dibenarkan untuk diedar, dijual, disimpan, diterbitkan dan dicetak semula dalam apa jua bentuk di negeri Johor Darul Takzim.
