Summary

The Johor State Fatwa Committee ruled that it is permissible to use the waqf share funds collected from the public to buy a completed building for the Darul Furqan project at PTD 170404 and PTD 170405, Taman Damansara Alif, Johor Bahru. The building replaces the original project at site PTB 22953 for the Johor Qura' Association. The ruling was made because planning permission had not been received since 2013, construction costs kept rising and the association's activities were delayed.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
