Abstract

This study presents the Halal Reasoned Goal Pursuit (HRGP) framework, which is an extension of the Theory of Reasoned Goal Pursuit (TRGP), for better understanding Muslim consumer behavior toward halal food consumption. While prior research has shown the impact of halal certification, religious views, and societal standards, there are still inconsistencies in identifying these aspects as antecedents, mediators, or independent variables. Expanding on this, HRGP investigates two types of goals: active procurement goals, such as religious commitment, and active approval goals, including those from Muslim authorities. These goals continue to have an impact on Muslim attitudes and subjective standards, which define their consumer behavior intentions. Furthermore, HRGP emphasizes the importance of perceived behavioral control, which is molded by halal assurance and Muslim-signed. The HRGP paradigm examines Muslim consumer behavior comprehensively by investigating the interaction between individual reasons and community dynamics within Islamic principles.
