Summary: | The global halal industry has grown significantly, driven by contributions from
government, industry, academia, community, and environmental stakeholders.
This growth underscores the importance of science and technology (S&T) and
education in advancing the halal ecosystem. However, limited research has
explored halal science within a holistic, faith-based framework or the
development of formal halal curricula. Guided by the Preferred Reporting
Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), this study
investigates publication trends and the body of knowledge in halal science and
halal education. Using a bibliometric approach, data from Scopus were
analysed through tools like VosViewer software v1.6.13 and Biblioshiny tools
(RStudio 2023.12.0) while for Google scholar the search was done through
Publish and Perish v8.0 . The study identified 155 Scopus and 96 Google
Scholar entries, focusing on trends, thematic mappings, and keyword networks.
Findings reveal increasing interest in both domains, with Scopus highlighting
halal authentication, profiling, and halal meat research, while Google Scholar
focuses on consumer behaviour and perceived knowledge. Both sources lack
alignment with a holistic, tawhidic-based approach to halal science and have
minimal attention to formal halal education curricula. Research in halal science
remains tied to conventional S&T applications, and halal education primarily
addresses consumer knowledge rather than structured learning. The study
concludes that halal science needs a faith-based paradigm, and halal education
requires formal integration into curricula to sustain the halal ecosystem. Future
efforts should develop comprehensive halal curricula across educational levelsand integrate tawhidic principles into halal science. These initiatives will
bridge gaps, fostering innovation and sustainable growth in the halal industry. |
