Abstract


Halal is the eligibility status of food for the Muslims to consume. This research is intended to prove the practice of halal label manipulation in the target restaurants and to find out the factors supporting to this practice. The research methods are in line with MUI (Majelis Ulama Indonesia) the Board of Indonesian Muslim Scholars which has the authority to issue the halal-labeled food for business. The study has discovered the practice of halal labeling of illicit products in food stalls. The study found some problems: 1) fake halal label and basmalah (to mention the name of Allah) on the shop, 2) the cooking process mixed with unlawful raw materials, 3) the meats are unlawful to consume since they were slaughtered beyond Islamic way, 4) weak supervision regarding haram (unlawful) products with phony halal-label. 5) weak supervision of halal-labeled food on the market displays, 6) omission of halal food labeling, 7) complicated halal certification process.
