The phenomenon of taking fatwas lightly has become a common occurrence that frequently triggers disharmony within society. This happens because of a lack of proper qualification and capacity regarding fatwas. Furthermore, there is a gap between textual law and increasingly complex social dynamics, which demands the presence of a more dynamic and adaptive fatwa methodology. Therefore, this study aims to analyse the fatwa formulation methodology of Egypt’s Dār al-Iftā’. This research is a library study utilising a descriptive-qualitative approach. The findings indicate that the fatwa-making methodology of Egypt’s Dār al-Iftā’ integrates three pillars — the comprehension of texts, social reality, and the synchronisation of both — through four stages: al-taṣawwur (conceptualisation), al-takyif (categorisation), bayān al-ḥukm (legal derivation), and iṣdār al-fatwā (output). This structured implementation has produced credible, practical fatwas oriented towards public welfare (maṣlaḥah).
