Digital transformation in the halal industry : a bibliometric analysis of global research
Muhamad Dupi; Baloch, Inayat Ullah (Center for Islamic Economics and Development Studies (CIEDS)- P3EI, Faculty of Business and Economics, Universitas Islam Indonesia, 2025-10-23)
Purpose – This study explores the global literature trends concerning the digital transformation of the halal industry through the lens of a bibliometric methodology by finding key countries, institutions, journals, authors, thematic clusters, and co-occurring keywords and emphasizing the point of intersection of digitalization and sustainability as a potential future research direction. Methodology – Bibliometric analysis and visualization were used to conduct the research using the Scopus database and VOSviewer software. A total of 298 articles published between 2011 and 2025 were analyzed. Signs of publication increase, citation trends, country and institutional cooperation, and keyword co-occurrence networks were analyzed. Findings – It was discovered that the growth of publications has been rapid since 2018, peaking in 2024. Malaysia and Indonesia were the major contributors, and hence, the central role of Southeast Asia. Keywords were dominated by blockchain and halal, as research no longer focused on certification and food safety but on state-of-the-art technologies such as blockchain, AI, and machine learning. There was also the identification of strong institutional collaborations in the Journal of Islamic Marketing. Implications – This research offers lessons to policymakers, scholars, and the industry to improve halal practices using digital technologies with a focus on transparency, traceability, and sustainability in global supply chains and certification systems. Originality – This work provides a detailed bibliometric review of digital transformation in the halal sector and the concept of twin transformation, connecting digitalization with sustainability and resilience in the international halal ecosystem.
The shifting stands of secularism : Bangladesh’s response to religious conservatism
Hasan, Md. Mahdi; Bhirawa Anoraga (Centre for Islamic Studies and Civilisation, Charles Sturt University, 2025-09-05)
This article explores the shifting discourses and practices of secularism and Islamisation in Bangladesh, focusing on how the country’s secular identity has shifted since its beginning. The study addresses the central issue of how successive regimes have reinterpreted or diluted it to serve ideological and political objectives. This study argues that, although Bangladesh was founded as a secular state in 1972, the constitutional amendment in 1988 that declared Islam as the state religion reflects a significant and historical tension between secularism and religious identity. This tension has given rise to a distinctive form of secularism that Bangladesh has upheld throughout its history. We further contend that the relationship between religion and secularism is multifaceted in the context of the country, where the secular principles of Bangladesh do not denote the elimination of religion. Religious actors have the freedom to express their faiths in the public sphere, even though, to some extent, they undermine secular principles. The article also examines one secular political strategy – the slogan “Dharma Jār Jār, Utshob Shobār” (one’s religion is one’s own, but festivals are for everyone) – which highlights individual religious beliefs and identity while promoting communal celebration. The debates surrounding this slogan reveal how religious inclusivity is celebrated and contested in public life, reflecting deeper tensions between communal harmony and religious boundaries. It contributes to the broader understanding of secularism by demonstrating how secular principles in Muslim-majority contexts, like Bangladesh, are pragmatically reconfigured in response to political and religious pressures.
Fiqh perspectives on digital zakat : mapping global scholarship through bibliometric analysis
Muhamad Dupi; Baloch, Inayat Ullah (Sekola Tinggi Dirasat Islamiyah Imam Syafii Jember, 2025-10-13)
In this research paper, fiqh views on digital zakat are examined based on an analysis of 188 articles published in the years 2017-2025 and indexed in Scopus. It is based on VOSviewer as the main instrument since it tends to map the research tendencies, collaboration patterns, and thematic groups in order to present the overall picture of the global discussion. The findings indicate that the level of scholarly interest has been growing significantly, and the focus on the topic is expected to reach its highest point by 2021-2024 and show the rise of the topicality of the integration of Islamic jurisprudence and digital financial practices. Malaysia and Indonesia are the future contenders that will help them with well established Islamic finance ecosystems and institutional partnerships. It analyses five primary clusters; the intersection of Islamic finance and global issues, trust and technology adoption, geographical and socio-economic contexts, managing zakat with blockchain, and digitalizing the Islamic finance. As digital zakat has the advantage of efficiency, transparency, and compatibility with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the same has issues with digital literacy, infrastructure, and duality of the zakat institutions towards society and God.
Between clicks and convictions : youth political participation on facebook in Indonesia and Pakistan
Hussain, Wafa; Gilani, Irum; Shaker, Thanaa (Laboratorium of Sociology, UIN Sunan Kalijaga, 2025-04-28)
Social media has emerged as a pivotal arena for youth political participation, particularly within Muslim-majority societies where access to formal civic channels is often constrained. Despite growing interest in digital political engagement, comparative research remains limited in addressing how socio-cultural and political variables mediate online participation. This study investigates how Muslim youth in Indonesia and Pakistan utilize Facebook to articulate political ideologies, engage in civic discourse, and mobilize collective action. Employing a mixed-method approach, the study draws on both quantitative and qualitative data collected through an online survey administered to 30 purposively selected respondents (15 from each country), comprising Master's and PhD students active in digital political discussions. The survey incorporated both closed-ended items and openended questions to capture measurable patterns and nuanced perspectives. The researchers applied thematic and descriptive analyses to interpret trends and narratives emerging from the data. The findings reveal contrasting modes of engagement: Indonesian youth predominantly exhibit issue-oriented, personalized political expression, while the Pakistani youth counterparts demonstrate more ideologically aligned, affectively polarized participation linked to partisan narratives. The implication of these findings is that both policy design and theoretical models of youth political participation must account for cultural and structural specificities, as context-sensitive approaches are essential for effectively understanding and fostering civic engagement in diverse Muslim-majority societies.
