Selangor to gazette fatwa declaring GISBH’s practices deviant soon; all business chains to close once enforced, says state exco
“We will raise this matter at the MMKN, and if all members agree, it will subsequently be submitted to the State Legal Adviser for the gazetting of the fatwa. The Selangor Royal Office, in a statement on its Facebook page, announced that the decision was made because GISBH members were believed to still be practising the “Aurad Muhammadiah” or the “Zikir Agung” ritual propagated by the Darul Arqam group which had been declared deviant from the true teachings of Islam according to Gazette No. 54, published on February 4, 1993.
“Their employees haven’t received their salaries and GISBH has never paid taxes or zakat. We must understand this and the state government will not compromise,” he said. — Bernama
