STUNNING DALAM PENYEMBELIHAN HALAL MENGIKUT TUNTUTAN SYARIAH DAN KEPERLUAN INDUSTRI DI MALAYSIA
Stunning in Halal Slaughtering According to Shariah Requirements and Industry Needs in Malaysia
Abstract
Penggunaan kaedah stunning dalam penyembelihan halal semakin meluas selaras dengan kemajuan teknologi dalam industri halal. Di Malaysia, stunning dilaksanakan secara pilihan dalam rumah sembelih halal bagi tujuan meningkatkan kecekapan operasi, menjamin keselamatan pekerja serta menjaga kebajikan haiwan sebelum penyembelihan. Pelaksanaannya tertakluk kepada garis panduan Syariah yang ketat, seperti yang digariskan dalam Piawaian Halal Malaysia (MS1500:2019) dan Manual Prosedur Pensijilan Halal JAKIM. Kajian ini bertujuan meneliti penggunaan stunning dari sudut keselarasan dengan tuntutan Syariah dan keperluan praktikal industri halal di Malaysia. Pendekatan kajian ini melibatkan analisis dokumen seperti fatwa dan piawaian halal tempatan, analisis kepustakaan seperti artikel jurnal akademik dan buku. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa industri penyembelihan di Malaysia, dari sudut perundangan, telah mematuhi standard penggunaan stunning yang selaras dengan Syariah. Oleh itu, fokus utama kajian ini adalah kepada aspek pengawalan dan pemantauan bagi memastikan pelaksanaanya kekal menepati kehendak Syariah.
