Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee ruled that the land is a specific waqf for the mosque and the interests of Masjid Jamek Permatang Tok Gelam. Encik Mat Saeed Bin Haji Awang was the trustee under the waqf trust deed, but under current legal provisions MAINPP is the sole trustee. Any use of the land by any party without written permission from MAINPP is invalid, and the land must be returned to MAINPP immediately.
