In response to public requests to attend prayers at mosques and suraus, Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin stated that the government has agreed to allow only fully vaccinated worshippers to participate in prayer activities, which applies to all phases of the PPN.

According to Bernama, Muhyiddin stated that the mosque and surau management should implement standard operating procedures (SOPs) on public health protocols such as wearing face masks and physical distancing, and that worshippers should leave immediately after performing their prayers.

“Those who turn up to perform prayers must show its personnel the COVID-19 digital certificate as vaccination proof that they have been fully vaccinated.

”This facility is also granted to non-Muslims to attend (prayers at) their houses of worship, and it is subject to the state religious authorities and National Unity Ministry for houses of worship other than Islam,” he said.
