The Inculcation of Islamic Values Policy is a policy introduced by the Government of Malaysia in 1985 by the Prime Minister, Tun Mahathir Mohamad. This policy is a continuation of the efforts of the Malaysian government that have been accomplished such as the establishment of various organizations based on Islamic values. In line with that, the Malaysian Armed Forces organization is also working towards the application of values in Islam in the organization to erode the influence of the British military tradition which is contrary to the Malay and Islamic traditions. The establishment of the Religious Corps of the Malaysian Armed Forces in 1985 was one of the efforts toward Syariah compliance in the Malaysian Armed Forces. The objective of this study is to explore KAGAT’s efforts to meet shariah compliance requirements in ATM organizations. In addition, the objective of this study is to examine the approaches implemented to implement Shariah compliance in ATMs. This qualitative study uses library research methods and document review as data collection methods. While the thematic analysis method is used to analyze the data. The research findings show that Shariah compliance efforts have been implemented effectively using appropriate approaches. Shariah compliance has increased and brought a positive impact to the success of KAGAT in the implementation of dakwah more comprehensively and continuously to build a competent Malaysian Armed Forces with a strong combat force and a strong spirit. This study fills the gaps in the literature regarding aspects of Shariah compliance and methods used in the Malaysian Armed Forces because such studies are still so barely explored by past researchers.

The trend of foundation embroidery treatment has been widespread and frenzy among Muslim women. Foundation embroidery is one of the most sophisticated facial treatments in Malaysia. With the overly and grossly obsessed attitude toward beautiful faces, most women are willing to spend hundreds of money to look gorgeous in front of society. The sophistication of technology nowadays, especially involving facial treatment and so on, requires a lot and depth research and explanation because this not only consists of the safety of our health but also relates to Islamic law, especially for Muslim women. Thus, the objective of this study is to investigate the procedures and classification of foundation embroidery treatment as it is one of the most popular facial treatments nowadays, especially in Malaysia. Apart from that, this research aims to evaluate the law governing this therapy from a halal perspective and the health risks associated with foundation embroidery. A qualitative research method was employed in which the process of getting high-quality information from literature is studied inductively and deductively. The findings of this study reveal that health organisations and Islamic law prohibit the treatment of foundation embroidery as it gives more harm and risks to the consumer even though the consumer’s intention is in a good way. The study of scientists and dermatologists also proves it.

Tourists’ perceptions of risk aspects for travel destinations are one of the key elements in deciding to revisit and suggest tourism destinations. A few studies have been made on the implications and inclination of tourists revisiting and suggesting a destination. However, a theoretical foundation needs to be developed in current literature, highlighting the impact of tourist risk of halal products and services through satisfaction towards intention to recommend and continue the use of halal items. This paper aims to increase the understanding of the intention to recommend and continue the use of halal items given the identified sources of risk and the mediating role of tourist satisfaction for sustainable tourism in Klang Valley. This research examines a comprehensive model of intention to recommend and continue using halal items. Researchers conducted a study through structured questionnaires to Klang Valley tourists. The data of 461 respondents have been analysed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The findings show all elements of risk aspects positively influence the intention to recommend and continue the usage of halal items. Furthermore, tourist satisfaction mediates the relationship between risk aspects and the intention to recommend and continue the usage of halal items. Results from this study will help tourism providers react accordingly to the tourists' needs by understanding the importance of halal products and services in an atmosphere of commercial competition.

Family well-being is critically essential in shaping a sustainable healthy society and nation. This is important when the nation is struck with disasters such as the pandemic covid 19. Family units must be strong in facing the adverse effects of the pandemic. Preserving family well-being is consistent with the 11th Malaysia Plan (RMK 11) which sets one of its targets to improve the well-being of society. Therefore, the goal of this thematic review is to synthesize literature from 2020-2022 on the family well-being during COVID-19 using ATLAS.ti 8. A keyword search, followed by a filter using inclusion criteria from SCOPUS, WoS, and Mendeley databases, identified 50 peer-reviewed journal articles. However, after the inclusion and exclusion process, only 39 articles were used as the final articles to be reviewed. A thematic review of these articles identified 63 initial codes characterizing family well-being during pandemic COVID-19, grouped into 5 clusters: 1) spiritual and psychological needs 2) building resilience during COVID-19 3) negotiation 4) motivation and 5) emotional well-being. The results may benefit future studies on family well-being during pandemics and can be a guideline for developing family happiness.

The pandemic of COVID-19 has stricken the world economy significantly since its first outbreak. This also affected the Malaysian economy where many businesses have halted their operation due to the outbreak as well as movement restriction order (MCO) issued by the government. Nevertheless, the condition in Malaysia is seemingly improved since the vaccination programme set by the government has reached a 78.9% vaccination rate of the total population by the first quarter of the year 2022. Currently, the Malaysian government has now in the transition from the pandemic phase to endemic phase and relaxed the imposition of restrictions that were previously enforced. This allows business operation to regain their grip in the post COVID-19 era. Despite the fragility of the supply chain particularly within the halal ecosystem, a vital aspect that is almost neglected is the encroaching food crime incidents, and the food defence approach which encompasses the protection of food supply chain against intentional contamination is still on high alert. The incidence of meat cartel in late 2020 has warned that food crime is not seizing nor hindered its operation. Therefore, a robust approach needs to be addressed to defend the food supply chain, and more importantly the halal ecosystem. Therefore, this study is carried out to examine the future direction of food defence in the post COVID-19 era in Malaysia. This study utilizes library research to collect the data by using online databases such as Google Scholar, Emerald, Science Direct and SCOPUS. This study also presents strategies for reinforcing the integrity of the food supply chain against the threat of intentional contamination from the perspective of the halal ecosystem.

This paper aims to examine the factors of Muslims' intention toward halal financing by considering religiosity as a mediator. The data were collected through a survey of 220 Muslims in Malaysia and were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique. The returned survey was N=211, and the results showed that attitudes and subjective norms positively affect the intention to use halal financing. Religiosity has a mediation effect on the intention to use halal financing. Managers and marketers of Islamic banks may benefit from the findings of this study, which provide insight into the factors that should be considered to promote halal financing. The findings contribute to the literature on halal financing products by demonstrating the drivers of intention to use halal financing. The study also extends the literature by testing the mediating role of religiosity. Furthermore, the study extends the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) in the context of halal financing by introducing religiosity as a potential driver of intention and mediator effect.

The halal cosmetics industry is an industry that is beginning to gain a place in the range of beauty products in the Malaysian market. The issue of cosmetic products categorized as timbang kilo beauty cosmetics with a percentage of scheduled poisons prompts cosmetic users in the market to look for safer products. This scenario provides an excellent opportunity for halal cosmetic products. This research found the increase in demand for halal cosmetic products is influenced by the knowledge, attitude, and environment of consumers. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze whether the religious factor is capable of being a mediator in the relationship between the factors of knowledge, attitude, and consumer environment with the decision to purchase halal cosmetic products. The questionnaire was conducted online using Google Forms. The total response rate that has been received is as much as 234 people, however, after carrying out the data screening process, 33 samples are invalid respondents and have been dropped. This reduced the total sample to 201 people. Therefore, this study focuses on 201 working Muslim women in Selangor. The results of the study found the coefficient value for the religious factor as a mediator of knowledge, attitude and environment factors are 0.145 while the standard error value is 0.027. For the effect of the mediator on consumer purchase decisions on halal cosmetic products, the coefficient value is 0.117 while the standard error value is 0.049. The researcher also conducted the Sobel test. The result of the Sobel test was 2.18, with an associated P value of 0.029 falling below the set alpha level of 0.05. This shows that there is a significant relationship between the mediator with the independent variable and the dependent variable. In other words, the religious factor is confirmed as a mediator in the relationship between independent variables and dependent variables. The results of this finding can be concluded that the application of religious values can influence the decision to purchase halal cosmetic products. The application of religious values in individuals encourages consumers to choose halal products as demanded in Islam.

The sudden turbulence in the economy because of the pandemic in 2020 did not deter logistics operations. The ability of many logistics networks was put to the test when being overwhelmed by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As an industry trying to realise the fourth industry revolution (4IR) with blockchain technology, challenges are perceived in terms of commitment among companies involved in the supply chain, mainly the logistics of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Visualising itself as a leading global Halal hub, Malaysia needs to zoom in on the logistics SMEs to understand their readiness for halal compliance to support them in halal traceability issues possible to be solved with 4IR technology. Currently, only the manufacturer or producer of food is required to be awarded halal certification, instead of every company within the supply chain, bringing out doubts on how the transportation and movement of the products comply with the halal integrity and regulations. This study zooms into the operational level of logistics SMEs by performing qualitative research on a few logistics SMEs approachable during the pandemic year. Case studies on the responding companies are produced based on the interview survey and observations made on the business processes during the interview. The results from the interview survey are summarised in terms of issues and challenges at ground zero that need to be considered for the governance of halal logistics compliance. The outcome of this study is the proposed framework of 3Es for the Governance of Halal Logistics Compliance.

The establishment of the International Association of Museums (ICOM) shows a global commitment to promoting and preserving cultural heritage, especially in the modern age. ICOM provides a unique professional network of museums and museum professionals from countries around the world as members. The museum serves as an exhibition place of national treasures and an educational institution. However, there are responses from the Salafi Jihadists, an orthodox Islamic group, who oppose the establishment of museum institutions. Some Muslims believe this narrative represents the true teachings of Islam. Anti-museum means strongly opposing the museum as an institution with its three (3) functions; preserving, studying and exhibiting tangible and intangible historical heritage. Thus, the objective of this study is to apply the wasatiyyah approach by analysing the arguments of the anti-museum based on the philosophy of iconoclasm and Salafi jihad ideologies. It also aims to reject the arguments of an anti-museum approach using the qualitative method and case study design. This study employs a qualitative approach through library research to collect primary and secondary data related to the museum institutions. The analysis of this study uses the content analysis method. This study found that Islam does not reject museums as an institution and does not practice anti-museum sentiments.

ICOM provides a unique professional network of museums and museum professionals from countries around the world as members. The museum serves as an exhibition place of national treasures and an educational institution. However, there are responses from the Salafi Jihadists, an orthodox Islamic group, who oppose the establishment of museum institutions. Some Muslims believe this narrative represents the true teachings of Islam. Anti-museum means strongly opposing the museum as an institution with its three (3) functions; preserving, studying and exhibiting tangible and intangible historical heritage. Thus, the objective of this study is to apply the wasatiyyah approach by analysing the arguments of the anti-museum based on the philosophy of iconoclasm and Salafi jihad ideologies. It also aims to reject the arguments of an anti-museum approach using the qualitative method and case study design. This study employs a qualitative approach through library research to collect primary and secondary data related to the museum institutions.

A pair of porcine-specific primers defining a 145 bp region of the mitochondrial D-loop 443 were used to identify the presence of porcine DNA in ten samples of imported instant noodles and soft candies by Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR). This study was performed in three steps: sample preparation, DNA extraction, and DNA amplification using Real-Time PCR. The porcine DNA was amplified at an annealing temperature of 53oC for 39 cycles. The result confirmed that three samples of instant noodles and three soft candies were found to contain porcine D.N.A. This method could effectively authenticate Halal products in processed foods, verify food labelling, and provide consumer protection.
