Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee permitted the temporary hall to be built through privatisation by Suria Kot S Sdn. Bhd., subject to several conditions. The building is for the Muslim community only, is allowed on a temporary and sufferance basis, and the land used must not exceed actual need as measured by the Johor Islamic Religious Council. The sanctity of the waqf land must be preserved and the hall's use supervised against misuse. If the site is later required for the purpose of 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.
