Abstract

The implementation of mandatory halal certification in Indonesia is part of the government’s efforts to provide legal certainty, protect consumers, and enhance the competitiveness of products in both the domestic and global markets. The enactment of Law No. 33 of 2014 on Halal Product Assurance, along with its implementing regulations, requires products entering, circulating, and being traded within Indonesia to hold a halal certificate in accordance with applicable regulations. Nevertheless, its implementation still faces various challenges, such as low compliance rates among business operators, limited understanding—particularly among micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs)—as well as administrative and institutional obstacles in the certification process. This study aims to analyze the implementation of halal certification requirements in Indonesia and to assess the effectiveness of legal regulations in ensuring halal products. The study employs a normative legal research method using both the statutory approach and the conceptual approach. Primary legal sources consist of laws and regulations regarding halal product assurance, while secondary legal sources are drawn from relevant literature, academic journals, and legal documents. The analysis is conducted qualitatively by examining the alignment between legal norms and their implementation. Research findings indicate that the halal certification requirement has strengthened legal protections for consumers, increased public trust in products, and spurred the development of the national halal industry. However, the effectiveness of its implementation is still influenced by institutional capacity, the accessibility of certification services, the level of awareness among business operators, and the effectiveness of government oversight. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen interagency coordination, simplify certification procedures, increase assistance for MSMEs, and ensure consistent law enforcement so that the objectives of the halal product assurance system can be optimally achieved.

Abstract

Islamic criminal law and global constitutionalism are often understood dichotomously as conflicting concepts, yet the relationship between the two is far more complex and multifaceted. Normatively, Islamic criminal law is grounded in the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, which emphasizes justice, the protection of rights, and human dignity, while in practice, it exhibits variations in implementation across different legal systems. This study aims to analyze the normative foundations, identify points of convergence, and formulate a multi-layered compatibility test model between Islamic criminal law and global constitutionalism. This study employs a qualitative method with a normative legal approach enriched by comparative and conceptual perspectives, through a literature review of secondary data analyzed using descriptive-analytical and interpretive methods. The research findings indicate that at the level of principles and procedures, there is a strong degree of compatibility, particularly through the maqāṣid, strict standards of proof, and the principle of prudence in the application of sanctions. However, at the substantive level, tensions arise primarily regarding hudūd, which cannot be understood in isolation from ta‘zīr and qiṣāṣ as a unified system. The novelty of this research lies not merely in the reconstruction of a layered compatibility test, but in the effort to formulate a holistic interpretation that rejects the fragmentation of analysis, while presenting an integrative framework that is better able to bridge the conceptual tension between Islamic criminal law and the principles of global constitutionalism.
