<![CDATA[Purpose - This study aims to analyze and reconstruct halal industry governance in Indonesia’s halal fashion sector by integrating halal certification, environmental sustainability, international standards, and accountability for production impacts. The study addresses the problem that halal industry governance remains predominantly oriented toward formal compliance, while ṭayyib, environmental sustainability, environmental monitoring, and accountability have not yet been integrated into a coherent governance framework. Methods - This study employs an interdisciplinary approach to analyze halal industry governance, environmental sustainability, and industrial waste management. Data were obtained through document analysis of regulations, national halal policies and standards, OIC/SMIIC standards, and relevant literature. The data were analyzed qualitatively by integrating perspectives on halal governance, environmental sustainability, and maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. Findings - The findings indicate that the main problem in Indonesia’s halal industry governance lies in regulatory and institutional fragmentation and the predominance of end-product compliance. The existing halal certification system has not adequately integrated environmental sustainability indicators or systematically connected halal supervision with production waste management. The comparison with OIC/SMIIC standards further indicates the need to strengthen interoperability in certification, accreditation, conformity assessment, traceability, and mutual recognition to support international competitiveness. Furthermore, textile waste mismanagement cannot automatically be categorized as an economic environmental crime; such classification requires environmental harm or pollution, a violation of applicable law, an economic motive or cost avoidance, and the fulfillment of corporate criminal liability requirements. Research contribution/limitations - This study offers a conceptual roadmap for reforming halal industry governance by integrating halal compliance, environmental responsibility, sustainability, and legal accountability. The study is limited to document-based analysis and secondary sources, without empirical research or laboratory testing of textile waste. Originality/value - This study conceptually reconstructs halal governance from a formal “Halal” orientation toward an integrated “Halal–Ṭayyib–Sustainability” framework grounded in maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. The framework integrates halal status, public benefit, environmental sustainability, oversight, and law enforcement to support regulatory harmonization, institutional coordination, post-certification monitoring, and stronger corporate accountability.]]>
