A syarie lawyer's career as an officer and fellow court member must be done properly and maturely. The computerized filing method that has been used appears to be undermining the role of syarie attorneys. This problem should be viewed as a danger to the future legacy of sharia attorneys by the Sharia court's highest government. As a result, the advanced diploma for sharia graduates, such as DPGS, is considered as highly important in generating professional and competent syarie attorneys in coloring the world of sharia law, and therefore the court's participation is necessary by enhancing the more sustainable management system. As a result, the study's goal of determining why DPGS graduates are unable to practice as syarie judges and if it can be comparable with the DAIJ curriculum at IIUM has been met. Based on the study's findings, graduates of the DPGS program can apply for employment as sharia officers under the SPA system in each state and be appointed as a sharia judge, research officer, sulh officer, or deputy prosecutor every two years by rotation based on the district in the state. In this way, the DPGS program is identical to DAIJ and other programs for qualifying for admission into the application as a sharia judge known as a sharia officer.
