Abstract

Halal products are a major need for Muslims around the world. The existence of halal-certified restaurants and coffee shops is absolutely necessary, especially in Aceh Province which enforces Islamic Sharia. The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia guarantees the independence of every citizen to embrace his religion and belief. In order to carry out the constitutional mandate, the government is obliged to provide facilities and protection to everyone. One of the needs of Muslims is the availability of halal products for consumption and use. This study aims to examine the implementation of Qanun Aceh No. 8 of 2016 in the city of Lhokseumawe, how the obstacles and the supervision system carried out by the local government of Lhokseumawe City against the SJPH Qanun Aceh, especially regarding halal certificates. Using qualitative research methods with an empirical juridical approach, and prescriptive. The results showed that although the SJPH Qanun Aceh has been in effect for 6 years, it has not been running well, the research data shows that the restaurants established in the Lhokseumawe City area do not have halal certificates, the obstacles are lack of knowledge and lack of information from related parties. The Lhokseumawe City Government does not carry out autonomous supervision, there is no delegation of authority from the Provincial MPU LPPOM. MPU of Lhokseumawe City only participates in the Provincial LPPOM Program. It is recommended to the Aceh Provincial MPU to delegate supervisory authority to the city district government. Businessmans are advised to immediately take care of halal certification because providing halal products is an obligation that must be done.
