Referring to the Constitution of the State of Johor in 1897, clause 28, the Council of Ministers was institutionalized in writing. Following that, a major overhaul in the administrative structure of the Johor government was carried out. Among the new departments created is the Ecclesiastical and Education Department. YM Ungku Mohd Khalid bin Daeng Ibrahim has been approved to become the Chairman of the Department of Religion and Education. In terms of his level, the Department can be considered a ministry level when he is appointed as a Member of the Council of Ministers. As a government agency, the Department of Religion and Education has one of the most important executive positions, the Secretary. The first person to hold that position was Mohd Khalid bin Haji Abdul Munshi in 1906. The Education Division was separated as a separate Department. In 1918, the organization of the Department of Religion can be described as follows: Head of Department (Ungku Omar Ahmad), General Administration (Vice Head of Department Ungku Abdul Rahman) Office of the Mufti, (Syed Abdul Kadir Mokhsen), Office of Kadi (Haji Mohd Nasir bin Haji Salim), Bilal-Imam (districts), Kadi Batu Pahat and Kadi Muar. While the organizational structure of the Johor Religious Department in 1921 was as follows: The administrative structure of the Johor Department of Religion and Education appears to be more organized and structured, as is the specialization of tasks when compared to the situation at the end of the 19th century. In that century to determine the beginning of Ramadan, it must be determined by three religious figures. For example, fasting on 1 Ramadan 1302 Hijrah was confirmed by Hakim Haji Mohd Salleh as "Sheikhul Islam Johor" and Mufti Syed Salim bin Ahmad Al-Attas. It is quite difficult to find the role of the Islamic Sheikh in Johor but the role of the Mufti's Office is clear, which is responsible for issuing Islamic teaching credentials to religious teachers. While the Office of the Kadi as Registrar of Divorce and Reference is also responsible for the questions of the mosque and its staff. Among the important machinery of the Johor Religious Department is the Religious Education Committee which is responsible for the following matters: Administration and Establishment of Religious Schools including Arabic Schools. Religious School Examination Hiring religious teachers and solving problems of religious teachers including promotion. Islamic Religion Syllabus Check the books Based on the roles of the Council Committee and the Johor Religious Education Committee, a conclusion was made that the two committees are the heart that moves the Johor Religious Department. The two committees are policy-making bodies while the Department of Religion through its officials is the channel for the implementation of the policies and decisions of the two committees.
