Abstract

The rapid expansion of the halal economy has reshaped Muslim consumption patterns, particularly in the tourism sector. While existing studies emphasize halal tourism development, they largely overlook its socio-legal transformation and its role in shaping Muslim family well-being. This study fills the gap by integrating maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah with socio-legal and consumption theory to examine how Islamic tourism is reinterpreted within contemporary Muslim family life in Indonesia. This research employs a qualitative-dominant mixed-method approach with a sequential explanatory design, combining survey data and in-depth interviews with Muslim families in Bandung and Garut. The findings reveal a significant perceptual shift, with approximately 72% of respondents recognizing tourism as compatible with Islamic values when aligned with halal principles, and 68% considering it a primary component of family well-being. Tourism is increasingly understood as contributing to psychological relaxation, emotional bonding, and quality of life. Furthermore, the institutionalization of halal tourism through sharia-compliant services enhances its legitimacy and accessibility. Theoretically, this study demonstrates that tourism can be reinterpreted through the lens of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah as a means of achieving holistic well-being, challenging the assumption that leisure consumption is normatively contested in Islam. Practically, it highlights the strategic role of Muslim families as value-driven consumers within the halal ecosystem. This study contributes to socio-legal and consumption scholarship by positioning halal tourism as a key driver of contemporary Muslim family well-being.
