Summary
This book explores the fast-growing halal industry in Malaysia and beyond. Malaysia is seen as a global leader in halal governance and standards, with its halal food market worth RM 37.7 billion. It explains how the food industry now focuses more on halal requirements, not only to meet Muslims’ religious needs but also to attract non-Muslim consumers. The book discusses halal as both a moral system and a way of life, covering halal consumerism, governance, certification, and philosophy. It also looks at what influences young Malaysians’ halal practices and how both Muslims and non-Muslims view halal consumption. Based on research presented in ten chapters, the book provides a clear and comprehensive overview of Malaysia’s halal landscape.
