‘Cancel eatery closure order’

PETALING JAYA: The Kelantan government’s order to have food outlets in the state closed during terawih prayers is akin to blocking efforts to seek halal revenue during the holy month, says Bachok MP Nik Abduh Nik Aziz.He hoped the authorities would rescind the order, adding that generating good and halal revenue during the fasting month should be encouraged.

Nik Abduh, who is a PAS central committee member, said Muslims should be encouraged to manage their time wisely to fulfil their religious obligations.
