The “halal” food which is capable of forming personal skills that ultimately contribute to the formation of the nation. As Muslims, we must ensure a source of food and beverages is lawful and meet Islamic dietary guidelines (Surah al-Baqarah 2: 168) ‫ان ِإنَّهُ لَ ُك ْم‬ َ ‫ش ْي‬ ِ ‫ط‬ َّ ‫ت ال‬ ُ ‫ط ِيِّبًا َوال تَت َّ ِبعُوا ُخ‬ ِ ‫ط َوا‬ َ ‫ض َحالال‬ ِ ‫األر‬ ُ َّ‫يَا أَيُّ َها الن‬ ْ ‫اس ُكلُوا ِم َّما فِي‬ ‫عد ٌُّو ُم ِبين‬ َ Halal is an Arabic word name.

Since the production of a food product comprising a particular process, starting from the selection, preparation of materials, manufacture, production, storage, transfer, distribution until the product is presented to the user, then the "halal" should cover the whole network starting from its source. WHY HALAL INTEREST IN MALAYSIA ? WHY HALAL INTEREST IN MALAYSIA ? STATE OF ISLAMIC GLOBAL REPORT 2019/2020 STATE OF ISLAMIC GLOBAL REPORT 2019/2020 Factors of Halal Industry Development Malaysia Is Leading Number One Malaysia Is Leading Number One  The Importance of Halal Certification in Malaysia Increase Revenue The development of the halal industry to increase national (hasil) income.

JAKIM was the world’s first halal certification body responsible for monitoring the halal industry, leading to the amendment of Malaysia’s Trade Description Act in 2011 which gives JAKIM a much stronger mandate to regulate the halal industry. JAKIM’s recognition programme for international Halal bodies is the most stringent and sought-after bilateral halal system recognition programme in the world with over 50 international bodies registered to-date. The iconic Malaysia Halal logo is the most sought- after, globally-recognised hallmark that serves as an emblem for the country’s reputation as the world’s leading halal hub.  Realising the vast economic potential of the halal industry, a developmental agency named the Halal Industry Development Corporation (HDC) was also formed under the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) in 2008. The agency is tasked to develop Malaysia’s industrial capacity and bring in foreign direct investment (FDI) into the country.  Malaysia plays host to two of the most important annual events in the halal industry, namely the Malaysia International Halal Showcase (MIHAS) and the World Halal Forum (WHF). Both play a important role in building the country’s reputation as the global reference and trade centre for the new mainstream halal industry since 2003. With the government’s full support and heavy involvements, Malaysia’s credibility and leadership in the halal sector is also recognised by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).  There is no end to the variety of halal products and services that can be found in Malaysia; from halal food to Islamic banking, Malaysia provides end-to-end Halal goods with universal appeal. This, coupled with a conducive environment and Government-backed policies and initiatives, strengthens Malaysia’s position as the nucleus of the global halal industry. HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT ON HALAL CERTIFICATION IN MALAYSIA 1974 Prime Minister gave the halal certification products that meet the requirements Islamic law to research centre of islamic affairs division.
