Establishing Validity in Halal-Based Research: A Rabbani Approach Analysis
Journal Title: International Journal of Academic Research in Business and Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 5
Abstract
This article comprises two main objectives. The first is to analyse Muslim scholars’ opinions on the daleel pertaining to halal matters, specifically verse 116 of surah al-Nahl. The second objective is to summarize the elements of validity pertaining to halal-based research. Validity is the most important element in any research in which a research is considered as being true or on the contrary. One of the principles that ensures that acceptability of validity is evaluation from the same source. Since the concept of halal is an instrument originated from Islam, the validity of element required in halal-based research has to be extracted from al-Qur’an and al-Sunnah. This principle is known as the Rabbani approach. This approach ensures truth in establishing validity in the research. The central question is, what do the scholars think of the halal daleel found in verse 116 of surah al-Nahl? How do we construct elements of validity on halal-based research from the scholars’ opinions? This article seeks to answer these questions by analysing textually scholarly literature as well as personal communication that the researcher had with experts in this field. This article discusses the scholars’ views of verse 116 of surah al-Nahl to answer the first question. The article summarizes validity elements in halal-based research to answer the second question.
