Zulkifli Mohamad al-Bakri says the relevant health authorities will be empowered to prohibit Friday congregations if the Covid-19 situation worsens.
Newly appointed minister in charge of Islamic affairs, Zulkifli Mohamad al-Bakri, also issued a four-point guideline for Muslims attending religious congregations, following health authorities’ confirmation that a man who attended a three-day convention at a mosque in Kuala Lumpur had contracted Covid-19.
Yesterday, the health ministry appealed to some 5,000 participants of the tabligh movement, a loose missionary group which makes Masjid Seri Petaling their base for weekly gatherings, to report to the nearest government clinic to conduct tests.
