The urgency of the direction of the Qibla in South Sulawesi is still a polemic in terms of validating the direction of the Qibla, due to the fact that there are still deviations in the direction of the Qibla of mosques in several regencies/cities, so the meaning of Ulil Amri, especially the Ministry of Religious Affairs of South Sulawesi Province, has an obligation to take care of the interests of the people, one of which is the problem of the direction of the Qibla so that it is in accordance with the rules in the study of astronomy. This research is a field researcher (Field Research) with a sharia, scientific-cum-doctrinaire, and ethnomethodological approach using research data obtained by interview and documentation methods, then the data that has been processed is analyzed qualitatively. The results of this study indicate that the role of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of South Sulawesi Province as Ulil Amri in determining the direction of the Qibla is in accordance with its main duties and functions based on the Regulation of the Minister of Religious Affairs Number 19 of 2019 concerning the Organization and Work Procedures of Vertical Agencies of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, but in terms of calibrating the direction of the Qibla of mosques, its effectiveness is still not comprehensive, this is based on the results of data comparing the direction of the Qibla that has been explained, that in several regencies/cities there are still deviations in the direction of the Qibla of mosques, such as Makassar City with 11 mosques and Gowa Regency with 17 mosques.
