Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee permitted the construction of an Infodesa Centre on part of the surau reserve land PTD 4732, Mukim Kahang, Kluang, subject to conditions. The building must serve the Muslim community, especially activities that help strengthen surau administration, and the permission is only temporary and on a sharing basis. The land used must not exceed actual need, the waqf land must not be removed from the surau area, the sanctity of the area must be preserved, and computer use must be supervised. If the site is later needed as stipulated in the waqf deed, the building must be demolished and the site returned.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
