Abstract: The Enactment of Islamic Administration in the state of Malaysia has earmarked that the teaching of Shafi'ite is the main reference in issuing a fatwa.

In this article examples has been selected to prove this matter until there is a conclusion that indicates the practice of tarjih among the teaching of Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jamaah which have been significantly used in the latest fatwa.
