Abstract (English): The Indonesian government, regulators, and Muslim consumers increasingly recognize the halal industry as an essential sector for economic growth. This study aims to assess the understanding, acceptance, and implementation of halal among educated Muslim youth and analyse the urgency of halal in food, tourism, and banking. The research was conducted at four State Islamic Universities (PTKIN) in Central Java, Indonesia, involving 145 students as respondents. A descriptive quantitative approach was applied using structured questionnaires, analysed with frequency and percentage techniques, and interpreted through Islamic legal philosophy, particularly fiqh and maqāṣid al-sharī'a. The study finds that the halal of food, tourism, economy, and banking has a strong epistemological basis in Islam; however, a segment of Muslim minority students demonstrates rejection or inconsistent implementation due to differences in interpretation, limited accessibility, and perceptions of government policies. Despite this, there is strong support for halal, with over 91% endorsing government initiatives and 92% acknowledging their contribution to economic growth. Based on these findings, the study recommends standardizing halal concepts across sectors, systematically evaluating program impacts, and continuously educating the public to optimise the implementation of Indonesia's halal industry policy.

Abstract (Indonesian): Industri halal semakin diakui oleh pemerintah Indonesia, regulator, dan konsumen Muslim sebagai sektor penting untuk pertumbuhan ekonomi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengukur pemahaman, penerimaan, dan implementasi prinsip halal di kalangan generasi muda Muslim terdidik, dan menganalisis urgensi halalisasi di bidang makanan, pariwisata, dan perbankan. Penelitian dilakukan di empat Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri (PTKIN) di Jawa Tengah, Indonesia, dengan 145 mahasiswa sebagai responden. Pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif diterapkan melalui kuesioner terstruktur, dianalisis menggunakan teknik frekuensi dan persentase, dan ditafsirkan melalui perspektif filsafat hukum Islam, khususnya fiqh dan maqāṣid al-sharī'a. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa halalisasi makanan, pariwisata, ekonomi, dan perbankan memiliki dasar epistemologis yang kuat dalam Islam; namun, sebagian mahasiswa Muslim minoritas menunjukkan penolakan atau implementasi yang tidak konsisten akibat perbedaan interpretasi, keterbatasan aksesibilitas, dan persepsi terhadap kebijakan pemerintah. Meski demikian, terdapat dukungan yang kuat terhadap halalisasi, dengan lebih dari 91% responden menyetujui inisiatif pemerintah dan 92% mengakui kontribusinya terhadap pertumbuhan ekonomi. Berdasarkan temuan ini, penelitian merekomendasikan standarisasi konsep halal di seluruh sektor, evaluasi dampak program secara sistematis, serta edukasi berkelanjutan kepada masyarakat untuk memaksimalkan implementasi kebijakan industri halal di Indonesia.
