ANALISIS ETIKA PENJUALAN PRODUK KADALUARSA DALAM PRESPEKTIF ISLAM

Abstract

The sale of expired products is an issue that often arises in the business world, both in the context of conventional economics and from an Islamic perspective. This study aims to analyze the ethics of selling expired products from an Islamic economic perspective with a case study at PT. Nestle Indofood Citrarasa Indonesia. Selling products that are close to their expiration date can cause losses to consumers and damage the company's reputation. In Islam, this kind of practice is considered unethical because it can violate the principles of fair, transparent, and non-deceptive business. Therefore, this study will discuss the definition of selling expired products in Islamic economics, the factors that influence the sale of expired products, and the positive and negative impacts of the practice. In addition, this study will also explore the application of consumer protection ethics according to sharia, the relationship between the principle of gharar (uncertainty) and the sale of expired products, and the steps that can be taken by traders to avoid the practice. This study uses a normative approach by analyzing laws and regulations, Islamic legal doctrines, and case studies to explore solutions that are in accordance with sharia principles in dealing with this problem. The results of the study are expected to contribute to increasing awareness of traders, consumers, and related parties regarding the importance of maintaining ethics in buying and selling practices in accordance with Islamic teachings.
