State Mufti Assoc Prof Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin
said the matter was decided during the committee's meetings on Feb 18 and 19.
"The act of polluting the environment which
directly affects the nature's ecosystem, causing harm to living things is in conflict
with the teachings of Islam.
"Islam is a religion that calls upon its
followers to preserve the wellbeing of human life and the universe, and not
perform harmful acts," he said in a special press conference at the State
Mufti Department.
Meanwhile, Mohd Asri also called for products such
as 'smart raisins' and 'drinks' strengthened with the verses of the Quran, to
be banned, as they wrongly exploited the name of religion, and misled the
people.
