“…The aspects of 'Halalness' knowledge of the products is very important during decision making, either to accept or reject a product 12 . However, this significant finding is contrary to the work of scholar like Hamdan et al 13 who concluded that the impact of this factor on purchasing decisions is weak. Consumers have sound knowledge on the concept of Halal, but they still have low awareness regarding Halal certification and Halal label 14 .…”

The goal of this research is to examine the effect of knowledge and religiosity on consumers' attitude towards Halal cosmetic products. Furthermore, the influence between consumers' attitude and their intention to use Halal cosmetic products is also explored. The Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach supported by Smart-PLS 2.0 was employed to evaluate the hypothesized model. This study conveys a strong message to cosmetic companies, particularly the producers, retailers, and distributors of cosmetic products regarding the imperative to foster better knowledge among consumers' regarding Halal cosmetic products consumption. The path estimate results of the PLS-SEM approach revealed that attitude is the strongest predictor of consumers' intention to use Halal cosmetic products. By having a positive attitude towards Halal cosmetic products, consumers' always look for the Halal label when buying cosmetic products. This proposition is further strengthened when the people considered most important to them also use Halal cosmetic products. Further, it was revealed that they also hold a strong belief that using Halal cosmetic products is important to them, especially when the decision to use it is of their own choice. Further, consumers' attitude towards Halal cosmetic products was impacted by aspects such as knowledge and religiosity. This study also informs on the benefits of fostering better knowledge among consumers' regarding Halal cosmetic products consumption towards captivating more demand of product consumption from Muslim consumers. The possible direction for future research is also presented.

“…Regarding knowledge of halal in the context of cosmetics, some people may still not know what content is forbidden. Findings of Hamdan, et al suggest that there is a weak link between knowledge of halal food and purchasing decisions [16]. In contrast, Abdul Aziz and Chok found that knowledge of halal food was positively related to the buying intention of non-Muslim consumers [5].…”

“…Despite insignificant relationship toward purchase intention of Thai Muslim consumers in this study, halal certification actually plays such an important role that it is the first criterion Muslims consider when purchasing products, specifically in food category. This is because halal certification from an authorized body is important to verify that the processed food products are genuinely halal (Hamdan, 2013). Having a certified halal label would be an advantage in order to attract more Muslim consumers.…”
