Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mujahid Yusof Rawa said government Islamic institutions such as the Department of Islamic Development (Jakim) would also be discussed.
“I would like to assure the people that the topic of Islamic administration will be given good input through an independent body so that it is not seen to have political interests.
“The Malay rulers and the palace will support this good cause because they are the protectors of Islam.
“Even the Conference of Rulers wants to see better Islamic administration under the Pakatan Harapan government,” he told reporters after a Hari Raya event at Dataran Kerian Permai here today.
The Parit Buntar MP also gave his assurance that Jakim would not be shut down, saying instead its role would be revised and improved.
