Summary: | Fatwa is an explanation on Islamic ruling, which is needed by
local society in facing new issues, as a solution in accordance
with Shariah. It also plays a vital role to clarify the confusions and
misunderstandings that happen in Muslim community. The solutions
offered by Fatwa would satisfy the curiosity and internal feeling of
Muslim in their daily life. This article will discuss the concept of fatwa
and the challenges of its enforcement according to 'The Administration
of Islamic Law (Federal Territory) Act'. Besides, the writer would also
identify the relevant authority body which has been given power by
the aforementioned Act to enforce the issued fatwa. The article would
try to reveal some problems and challenges in enforcing fatwa. Based
on writer's observation, the standard of fatwa enforcement in Federal
Territory of Kuala Lumpur is still below the normal level as it should
to be. The number of officers in the Enforcement Division of Islamic
Department is inadequate to make the fatwa as effective law. Hopefully,
this article would give a clear picture to Muslim community on the
reality of fatwa enforcement in Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur. |
