This study aimed to explore the forms of Jawi spelling mistakes faced by j-QAF trainee teachers in their bid to uphold Jawi spelling in present time via the implementation of Jawi Restoration Model Jawi in greater depth. This study used quantitative research methods with descriptive design, implemented using purposive sampling via distribution of questionnaires to all j-QAF teachers within the state of Terengganu, Kelantan and Pahang. Data acquired was analyzed using the Statistical Package For The Social Science (SPSS) software version 18. The study shows that Jawi spelling proficiency among j-QAF teachers is satisfactory with an average min value of 0.73. However, the inability to master the latest Jawi spelling appropriately had roused the concern that it will affect students’ teaching and learning process (TnL). Therefore, j-QAF teachers really need to enhance their mastery and understanding of the latest Jawi spelling system in addition to the initiative of streamlining their interests, skills and use of ICT in teaching Jawi.
