Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee ruled that using the complex as temporary accommodation for women who are victims of domestic violence is permissible. The Penang State Islamic Religious Affairs Department must set limits and a duration of stay, obtain operating expenses from the Social Welfare Department, and ensure dedicated security. The department is also advised to apply for ar riqab funds from the State Islamic Religious Council. The meeting also proposed the Balik Pulau Zakat Training Centre as an alternative location.
