This chapter underscores the importance of strategic integration and collaboration between Blue Economy principles and halal standards, promoting economic and environmental sustainability while meeting growing consumer demand for ethically sourced halal products. Integrating Fiqh al-Bi’ah, an Islamic environmental ethics framework, with Blue Economy practices enhances the sustainability of halal products, ensuring they are permissible under Islamic law and produced responsibly.
