Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the undertaken research was to analyze the filling in the post of Mufti of the Muslim Religious Union in relation to the principles of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, existing acts and jurisdiction of civil and administrative courts. Using the dogmatic method with emphasis on language and functional interpretation, an attempt was made to determine the method of the filling of the Mufti office and his legal situation in the Muslim Religious Union. The obtained results allowed for the formulation of a critical evaluation. In the Muslim Religious Union there is a dispute over the establishment of the Mufti office. It is urgent to repeal the Act of April 21, 1936, on the relationship of the State to the Muslim Religious Union in the Republic of Poland and the statute approved by the Council of Ministers by way of an ordinance of August 26, 1936. This can be done either by a Constitutional Court decision or by passing a new law on the basis of the Muslim Religious Union Agreement with the Council of Ministers.
