ANALYSIS OF MUI FATWA AND MINISTRY OF TRADE POLICY ON BOYCOTT PRODUCTS IN INDONESIA
Abstract
The prolonged conflict between Palestine and Israel has made several parties more aggressively
support Palestine. One form of Indonesia's support for Palestine is the issuance of the Indonesian Ulema
Council (MUI) fatwa No 83 of 2023 on the Law of Supporting the Palestinian Struggle. Unlike the MUI,
the Ministry of Trade did not issue any decree regarding the prohibition of Israeli boycott products
entering Indonesia, as long as they follow the applicable procedures. This research method uses a
literature study to collect data and information from books, journals, articles, and related news. The
purpose of this research is to analyze the fatwa of MUI and the Ministry of Trade regarding the boycott of
Israeli products circulating in Indonesia, as well as the response and attitude of the community regarding
this matter. The result of this research shows that the boycott of Israeli products is a form of indirect
support of the Indonesian people, namely with the MUI fatwa, which urges as much as possible to avoid
transactions and use of products affiliated with Israel and that support colonialism and Zionism. Unlike
the MUI, the Ministry of Trade does not prohibit any product from circulating and being traded in
Indonesia as long as it follows the applicable rules. This also has an impact on the decline of Indonesia's
economic level. The Ministry of Commerce, MUI, and the governments concerned should clarify and
affirm the decisions made regarding the Israeli boycott of products in Indonesia
