The number of worshippers at Friday prayers in mosques and surau for yellow and green zones in the Federal Territories has been increased to one-third of the hall capacity, effective tomorrow.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri said for the five obligatory prayers in the zones, not more than 30 worshippers are allowed and subject to the size of the hall with one-metre distancing between worshippers.
"For Labuan, which is currently a red zone, the number of worshippers for Friday prayers is limited to twelve people and three people for obligatory prayers.
"These arrangements will also apply in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya if there is a red zone in the area," he told a press conference via his official Facebook page today.
Zulkifli said the matter was agreed upon during the 9th Special Muzakarah Committee of the National Council on Islamic Religious Affairs of Malaysia which convened on Nov 2 and was consented to by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
