Scholars of the Malay world have played an important role in the efforts to spread Islamic teachings to the people of this region. Their efforts were carried out through various mediums, be it through verbal presentations or writing. The glory of Malay scholarship and field of knowledge reached its zenith when many local scholars obtained their education at Masjidil Haram, Mecca in the 18th century. Among them was Syeikh Ahmad Khatib Sambas (1802 M-1872 M), a scholar from the Malay Archipelago who was renowned for his expansive knowledge on Islam. This study will discuss the biography of Syeikh Ahmad Khatib Sambas (1802 M-1872 M) and analyse the contents of his writings, specifically "The Fatwa of Syeikh Ahmad Khatib Sambas On Ritual Slaughter". To reach this objective, this study's methodology will apply the qualitative method, encompassing document analysis and interviews to obtain research findings. The research findings of this study show that Syeikh Ahmad Khatib Sambas (1802 M-1872 M) grew up in and was surrounded by an environment steeped in knowledge, which made him become one of the Archipelago's most revered scholars. His works related to ritual slaughter has been highly beneficial to the field of knowledge, especially relating to the issue of slaughter that is legally recognised by syarak (Islamic religious law). His fatwa on the issue remains relevant to this day as the problem is still ongoing. Therefore, his views relating to issues concerning ritual slaughter has provided a guide to the community and prevented misunderstandings about the status of the ritual slaughter performed. His fatwa has provided a shift in the issues of fiqh that are related to ritual slaughter, which are unravelled based on the views of the Syafie school, besides providing solutions to issues regarding ritual slaughter that occur in the local community.
