Digitalization and Maqāṣid Al-Sharīʿah: Navigating Halal Lifestyle in Indonesia
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: In the digital era, the relevance of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah (the objectives of Islamic law) within a halal lifestyle has become increasingly significant for Muslims worldwide, especially in Indonesia. This study aims to explore the application of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah principles in the context of digital technology, focusing on how these principles influence the halal lifestyle.
Methods: A qualitative approach was used, including a comprehensive literature review and case studies. The research examines how digital tools, such as halal e-commerce platforms and digital halal certification applications, are integrated into the halal lifestyle and their alignment with maqāṣid al-sharīʿah.
Results: The study found that digital tools, such as halal e-commerce platforms and halal certification apps, significantly improve access to halal products and enhance the transparency of the halal industry. However, several challenges persist, including issues related to unverified information, the need for more stringent regulations, and the potential for deviations from sharia principles in digital platforms.
Discussion: Overcoming these challenges requires effective collaboration among government, industry, and society. Furthermore, educating the public on the principles of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah and the responsible use of technology is crucial to ensuring that halal lifestyles remain aligned with technological advancements in Indonesia.
Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of aligning maqāṣid al-sharīʿah principles with digital tools in promoting a halal lifestyle. To ensure sustainability and authenticity, it is essential to implement stricter regulations and increase public education on both Islamic law principles and the ethical use of technology.
Novelty: This research contributes to the understanding of how digital technology can support the halal lifestyle while adhering to the values of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah. It offers practical insights into the challenges and opportunities for integrating Islamic principles with digital advancements, particularly in Indonesia.
