Question

Accepted Answer

Tarawih Prayers Permitted in Kelantan Mosques with Specific Guidelines

Yes, tarawih prayers will be permitted in mosques and surau throughout Kelantan during Ramadan this year. The Kelantan Islamic and Malay Customs Council (Maik) has approved the congregational prayers, following consent from the Sultan of Kelantan, Sultan Muhammad V. These prayers will be subject to specific standard operating procedures (SOPs) to ensure the safety of congregants.
Prayer Capacity and Duration

Tarawih prayers are allowed to take place within the actual capacity of each mosque, surau, and musalla. A physical distancing measure of one metre must be observed among worshippers. The total duration for tarawih prayers, excluding the Isyak prayer, should not exceed one hour.
Restrictions on Religious Talks and Activities

Religious talks are explicitly not permitted to be held during tarawih prayers. However, talks scheduled after the morning and Asar prayers are allowed, provided physical distancing of one metre is maintained. Activities such as Quran recitation or tadarus are also permitted, contingent upon adherence to the established SOPs.
Guidelines for Breaking Fast and Sahur

Organised feasts for breaking fast and sahur (pre-dawn meals) are prohibited. Instead, mosques, surau, and musalla are encouraged to prepare food packets. These food packets should then be distributed to congregants, facilitating adherence to safety protocols while still providing for those attending prayers.
