FOREWORD
It is with great thank to Allah Almighty who has given us the opportunity to host this
International Conference on “Managing Growth for Sustainable Tourism Development:
Indigenous, Authentic, and Halal Tourism” 2017 in Senggigi Lombok and completed this
proceeding to fulfill academic result of the conference. This proceeding covers all
material that had been prepared by the keynote speakers, invited speakers and
authors. This proceeding hopefully will continue by entering one of international
journals that also had been offered by the committee.
We realize that in the completion of this conference there are so many contributions
from other parties. We would like to give grateful thanks to all those who have actively
supported this International Conference since the preparation stage to the completion
of this proceeding.
Firstly, we would like to thank the Ministry of Tourism Dr. Arief Yahya which has
supported the Committee to host this international event. The ministry’s concern on
tourism development in Lombok and Sumbawa Islands is really meaningful and has
motivated the Committee to host this Conference.

We would like to thank the Governor and Vice Governor of the Province of Nusa
Tenggara Barat, the Regent of Lombok Barat and other government officials who have
given tremendous support to the success of the Conference programs. We certainly
hope that this event can bring new ideas and insights into developing a sustainable
tourism in the Province of Nusa Tenggara Barat.
In this occasion, also we would like to thank Prof. Noel Scott of Griffith Institute for
Tourism at Griffith University Australia, Budi Faisal, Ph.D of Center of Tourism at
Bandung Institute of Technology and Mr. Ispan Junaidi, the Chief of Lombok Barat
Regency Tourism Agency, who have honored us through their continuous support, care
and supervision. Managing an international event such as this is a demanding task,
however, made easy by the share of laughter and joy among the Committee members
and Lombok Barat Regency Tourism Agency staff.
In addition, we also would like to honor and thank our main partners namely Griffith
University - Australia, Bandung Institute of Technology – West Java - Indonesia,

ABSTRACT
It is estimated that in 2010 there were 1.6 billion Muslims, representing 23.2% of an estimated
population of 6.9 billion (or one out of every five person in the world). More than 61% of Muslims
live in the Asia-Pacific region and Indonesia (209 million) has the largest Muslim population. The
world’s Muslim population is projected to grow by about 35% between 2010 and 2030 to 2.2
billion. These people’s are also experiencing rapid economic growth. Clearly, demand for goods
and services meeting the needs of Muslims will grow.However, these goods and services have
distinctive characteristics. The holy Qur’an provides guidance in all aspects of life, and
influences the direction of tourism choices that both individuals and governments are making
about alternative forms of its development and practice. Islam shapes the choice of a
destination for travel and what is done at the destination. The benefits of travel are many: the
freshness it brings to the heart, the delight of beholding new cities, the meeting of unknown
friends, the learning of high manners.
Many tourism destinations in non-Muslim countries are providing food, daily prayer facilities,
hotels and activities that are shari’a compliant. To accommodate increasing numbers of Muslim
tourists, especially from the Middle East, many destination management organizations or hotel
properties have added relevant information to their websites, such as prayer times and locations
where mosques and halal food can be found. Tourism operators have also provided their staff
with training about cross-cultural communication and to inform them how to accommodate or
treat Muslim tourists with respect. However, in some countries, Muslims may feel constraints
placed upon them in a host country. The growing significance of such intra-Muslim traffic has
led some countries such as Malaysia to focus on attracting Muslims and to develop their tourism
industry to match the needs of these travellers – called halal tourism.
The concept ofhalal tourism implies more local and regional social context to travel whereby
Muslims can learn about other communities and share their faith. Such tourism includes travel
to Islamic historical religious and cultural sites and countries. It requires the tourism offering
(food, accommodation, services and attractions) to be, and seen to be, halal. Such travel is
proposed as an alternative to a ‘Western’ hedonic conceptualization of tourism. Lombok has a
mainly Muslim population and is known as the “Island of a 1000 mosques”. Development of
halal tourism on Lombok is therefore authentic and is more likely to meet the approval of

residents. It also can provide a clear point of difference from most of the other destinations in
the region. But tourism is also a business. Development of halal tourism requires consideration
of development of promotional material, use of marketing channels such as social media to
reach target markets, money to build hotels and attractions, training of a labour force, and so
on. This paper will explore some of these requirements for developing halal tourism in Lombok.

The problem
Over the past 70 years, Australia has sold its tourism products
and services firstly to Australians holidaying in Australia and
then to Western (mostly English-speaking) international visitors.
We had some success with Japan in the late 1980s and more
recently with Asian countries such as South Korea, Taiwan,
Hong Kong and Singapore.
Mostly we sold visitors from these countries sightseeing to icons
such as Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, and the Sydney Opera
House. However, we got very little repeat business. Visitors
were happy to see the sights but did not engage significantly
with our culture and the everyday life of Australians.

Selling Beach Experiences

Australians like swimming in waves.
Chinese like to visit the beach on Gold Coast
but do not swim.
Question: How do we change the Australian
beach experience for Chinese people.
Answer: Design a new beach experience on
beach culture and beach food.
Griffith Institute for Tourism | World-leading tourism research | © Gardiner, 2016.

Adapting to Chinese tastes
There are some really good examples of
entrepreneurs adapting to Chinese tastes and
providing valuable experiences. An example is “catch
a crab tours” which involve no major physical activity
but do provide an opportunity to each local food that
is fresh. Crabs are a common meal in China but of
course there are issues about their provenance.
Catching a crab in the “wild” and then cooking and
eating it can provide a truly memorable experience for
a Chinese visitor.

ABSTRACT
Halal tourism must be in harmony with the teachings of Islam that has rahmatan lil alamin principle and
also aligned with its three dimensions which is a unity, aqidah, syariah, and akhlak, in order to reach
prosperity (Al Falah). Natural resource and culture richness of Lombok that is very closely related with
Islamic teachings (as the living law) is a potential halal tourism opportunity that is currently being
developed and as well as a means for reaching economic welfare, as well as a means of worship to the
god. This study explores the tourist destination in Lombok through the concept of halal tourism area
arrangement in order to support the prosperity of the local community. Therefore, the application of the
concept of the arrangement of areas that meet the values of Islamic teachings through the
empowerment of Lombok Muslim society became the key in this study. Through descriptive qualitative
study, several strategies for structuring and empowering the community through continuous training and
provision of education and training institutions are deemed very important for the realization of the
sustainability of halal natural tourism.
Keywords: Islamic Law, Halal Tourism, Community Empowerment, Education and Training

1. INTRODUCTION
Islamic law is not the same as Fiqh. Islamic law is the Islamic values that have been adopted or
transformed into positive law, and now there are quite a lot and concerning broadest muamalah issues.
For example viewed from the existence of the Law on waqf, Law of Religious Court, Sharia Banking Law
and so forth even up to the level of Local Regulation (Perda).
Tourism as one aspect in muamalah life certainly not escape the touch and color of values derived from
the living law (in this case Islamic Law). It becomes a necessity when a halal (kosher) tourism is
developed since it is one of the manifestations of the development of Islamic values in all sides of life.
This is due to the predominantly Muslim population of Indonesia and the increasing trend of religious

consciousness in recent decades (ie evident from the development of Islamic economics including
sharia banking).
The development of Islamic economics and especially sharia banking which is the underlying of all
economic activities is like a locomotive which attracts other sharia economic activities such as in
education, non-banking finance, including tourism industry. If you talk tourism then the problems that
arise will involve a very wide dimension, from hotel, travel to tourism object issues.
Tourism is an important aspect that supports the tourism industry, and in the context of the development
of halal tourism, the existing attractions need to be arranged in such a way with an Islamic color without
damaging the creative work of Allah SWT.
2. DISCUSSION
2.1. Islamic law as the living law and its strategic role in the development of Halal tourism
Positive Law is a unified legal system that is influenced by Customary Law, Islamic Law and Western
Law as The Living Law. Talking about Halal Tourism means talking about tourism and Islamic Law. It is
realized that tourism is a part of human activity which in Islam including into the activity of muamalah
whose argument is "all is allowed except for things that are forbidden".
With the deep understanding of Islamic law, there is a difference of definition between sharia and fiqh.
Syekh Mahmout Syaltout3 says sharia as the rules created by God so that men hold to sharia in their
relationship with their God, their fellow Muslim, their fellow human beings as well as his relationship with
the whole nature and relationship in their life, while fiqh is defined as derivatives of sharia which are more
applicable.
In Indonesia, the development of fiqh is very dynamic. The influence of culture causes the development
of fiqh becomes so easy and without turmoil, it can be said that a fiqh Nusantara (Archipelago) is loaded
with nuances tawasuth (middle way), tasamuh (tolerant) and tawazun (balance). If traced the
development of a fiqh Nusantara rooted in the school of Shafi'i because in general, da'i (Isamic
preacher) who came to Indonesia such as the generation of wali songo and previous generation had
Syafi'i madhhab (school).4 However, the question of the experts on Islamization in Indonesia has not
been answered explicitly, but Azyumardi Azra's opinion5 is noteworthy, that the process of Islamization
in Indonesia must be viewed from a global and local perspective as well. From a global perspective, the
Islamization in Indonesia should be understood as an integral part of the dynamics and changes that
occur in the Islamic world globally. Global dynamics will certainly affect the dynamics and traditions of
local Islam in Indonesia.
The development of fiqh in Indonesia in addition to the conducive cultural factors, the da'i who mostly
follows Syafi'i madhhab where the credo preached is very adaptive then no less important is the fact that

the State of Indonesia adheres to open legal system,6 which means that the State receives the required
legal material inputs from anywhere, provided that it does not conflict with the values of Pancasila and
the 1945 Constitution. This happens almost all over the country. Even according to Ismail Sunny, this is
where the important role of Islamic political law of Indonesia is the process of accepting the Islamic law
as a source of law by the State or legal policy that will or has been nationally implemented by the
Government of Indonesia. The politics of Islamic law includes the development and renewal of the law
on Islamic legal materials to suit the needs of the people. It includes therein having an understanding of
the applicable implementation of Islamic law, the enforcement of the functions of institutions, and the
fostering of Islamic law enforcement.7
If further exploring the implementation of Islamic Law in Indonesia, then there are five theories that can
be used in detail:
1. The theory of the credo,
2. The theory of Receptio in complex,
3. The theory of Receptie,
4. The theory of Receptie Exit
5. The theory of Receptie A Contrario.
The birth of these theories shows that the existence of Islamic law in Indonesian society is a necessity
and grows along with the growing and the developing theories and the formation of National legal
system.
If it is linked between the existence of Islamic Law with tourism activity then it is necessary to be studied
first how Islam view about tourism activity. The term tourism in Islam is Al Rihlah and Al Safar means as
a travel activity from one place to another with a specific purpose.8 This understanding is in accordance
with Law Number 10 of 2009 which states that the tour is a travel activity and as part of the activity
carried out voluntarily and is temporary to enjoy the tourist object and attraction. In addition, it is also
mentioned that tourism is anything to do relating to tourism, including the mastery of tourist objects and
attractions and the efforts associated with this sector. Therefore, the Law on Tourism is closely related to
the Law on Environmental Management and Protection, namely Law No. 32 of 2009.
The guide of tourism within Islam can be seen in QS Al Ankabut verses 19-20 which asserts that
humans need to travel to conduct research on various historical relics and human culture in order to be
born of awareness about the essence of selfhood of humans as mortal creatures. Similarly, it contained
in QS Yusuf verse 109 affirms to conduct searches in various countries as a sign that humans need to
know the culture of society over other world. Another verses in the Qur'an that can be used as a guide in
this case is QS Ar Rum verses 41-42 stating that destruction occurs on earth due to carelessness and
human actions and then humans thereafter are asked to watch and take as lessons. Several other
verses of the Qur'an in mentioning the terms safar are found in many verses such as Al Baqarah, An
Nisa, Al Maidah while the terms Rihlah is contained in QS 106 which implies the habit of quraisy tribe to
carry out the business travel in winter to Yemen and in summer to Sham. While Rasulullah SAW
advised his people to conduct the travel (spiritual tourism) to the three Mosques, they are Al Masjid Al
Haram, Al Masjid Al Rasul (Prophet)/Nabawi and Al Masjid Al Aqsa.
