Summary
On 9 July 2007 the Penang State Fatwa Committee recommended to MAINPP that the credentials of the three appointed imams be withdrawn. The imam post would then be openly advertised, and interested and qualified members of the Tasek Cempedak parish may apply for interview. During the vacancy, the South Seberang Perai District Religious Office is to manage the mosque and act as imam for prayers. An explanatory session led by Tuan Haji Ellias bin Zakaria was also to be held soon.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Mesyuarat mencadangkan kepada MAINPP supaya tauliah ketiga-tiga imam yang dilantik itu ditarik balik.
