The objective of this study is to analyze the existence advertising through three influencing factors consist of culture, control and emotions from an Islamic perspective conducted in Malaysia, i.e. Kedah state.This study conducted using quantitative approach where structured question was designed and the data were analyzed using correlations and multiple regressions.
