Abstract

Lack of compliance with Halalan Tayyiban standards indicates a larger problem in attaining the quality of food and product integrity that is not just halal but also tayyib (good and wholesome). However, despite their importance in Islamic education, private tahfiz institutions in Malaysia have struggled to properly implement Halalan Tayyiban, mainly due to their limited resources and lack of organised compliance. This review aims to explore strategic interventions in managing non-compliance with halalan tayyiban standards in Malaysian private tahfiz institutions. This study employed a review analysis approach to scrutinise the existing literature on Halalan Tayyiban compliance, food safety, and institutional practices in Malaysian private tahfiz institutions. The review analysis revealed several strategic interventions in managing non-compliance with Halalan Tayyiban standards in Malaysian private tahfiz institutions, including: (a) increased awareness and knowledge; (b) reduction in non-compliance incidents; (c) adoption of standard operating procedures (SOPs); (d) establishment of partnerships with certified suppliers; and (e) policy recommendations for systemic integration. In conclusion, the effort to address non-compliance of Halalan Tayyiban in Malaysian private tahfiz institutions may involve several dimensions of governance, operational plans, training, collaboration and harmonisation of policy.
