Summary
The Federal Territories Mufti Department fully supports the plan to build the Malaysia Waqf City in Gaza. It regards the humanitarian issue in Palestine as among the most critical and urgent issues facing Muslims, so it should be given priority. The aid is stated not to affect domestic development, as the project is funded jointly by the government, NGOs, the private sector and the public. The effort is also seen as a sign of Malaysian solidarity that may encourage international assistance.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Pihak Jabatan Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan (JMWP) menyokong penuh terhadap usaha yang digerakkan ini.
