Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee approved the mosque upgrade on condition that the Religious Administration Officer submits complete plans to the Penang Mufti Department. Temporary Friday prayers were permitted at the Bakau Tua JKKK Hall while the work is carried out. Usable materials go to any mosque in need, otherwise they are sold to a person of sound mind who has reached puberty, with the proceeds used for the mosque. Unusable materials may be buried or left to decay on site, and must not be burned.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
