through procedures agreed upon by the<br />

majority of ulama.<br />

11.Followers of different mazhab may pray<br />

together in the same mosque, and followers<br />

of one mazhab may pray behind the imam of<br />

other mazhab in congregational or Friday<br />

prayers.<br />

12.One cannot claim their jemaah or group<br />

is the one true Islamic jemaah, or that anyone<br />

who does not join that particular jemaah or<br />

organisation is considered to be out of the<br />

Islamic community or may be condemned.<br />

13.In matters related to ijtihad, one cannot<br />

claim that only his views are true and others<br />

are wrong, deviationist or bid’ah.<br />

14.Any opinion from man regardless of<br />

how lofty his position is, may either be<br />

accepted, or rejected, except those of the<br />

ma’sum ( infallible ) Prophet Muhammad<br />

(p.b.u.h.). One cannot adulate anyone else<br />

to the point of considering him as ma’sum<br />

and as an indisputable source of truth.<br />

15.A Muslim cannot disassociate (Bara’)<br />

himself from the Muslim community.<br />

16. A Muslim cannot label another as kafir.<br />

In the Singapore context, judgement of kufr<br />

or kafir may only be decided upon by the<br />

religious authority.<br />

17.A Muslim does not turn kafir merely<br />

because of the following;<br />

a.Committing vice, as long as he does not<br />

considers the vice as halal<br />

b.Holding political positions in a non-<br />

Islamic government<br />

c.Living under a non-Islamic government<br />

or country<br />

d.Not being in certain organisations<br />

18. The practice of taqlid (following the<br />

opinion of a particular imam/mazhab) is<br />

acceptable for the general public, and should<br />

not be condemned indiscriminately. On the<br />

other hand, ijtihad cannot be made<br />

obligatory for everyone.<br />

19.Khilafiyah issues should not be a<br />

source of controversy, polemic or conflicts<br />

in society. Objective and academic<br />

discussions are to be encouraged at a<br />

suitable time and place, within the appropiate<br />

audience.<br />
