Abstract

Ijtihad has been practiced by Islamic scholars since long time ago
in solving several emergent issues. During that time through ijtihad,
fatwa has been produced but treated merely as personal opinion.
Nowadays, the role of Islamic scholars in producing fatwa in
Malaysia is said to have been taken by the government through the
appointment of Fatwa Committee. This article discusses the
transmission of the role in order to formalize fatwa and to make it
binding.
