Development of Decision-Making Framework for Food Premises Based on Wara’ Parameter towards Syubhah Assesment

The selection of food premises is an important practice that requires attention of Muslims. The emerging new trend of dietary culture has become one of the challenges for contemporary Muslims in ensuring halalan tayyiban aspect. Therefore, the selection criteria of food premises is crucial for Muslims, and this can be done through a concept known as wara’ (abstinence). This study is carried out to highlight the wara’ aspect within the selection criteria as well as in the decision-making process. This is because wara’ plays an important role when dealing with doubtful elements (syubhah). This research wholly utilized library research to obtain data and data was analysed qualitatively by using content analysis method. Based on findings, there are several forms of syubhah that can affect the halalan tayyiban status. Therefore, this study proposes a decision-making framework based on wara’ and syubhah.
