Abstract

Food is one of the basic needs for human being. Food security is essential
to the survival of human being. This research analyzed food security
from the FAO definition and further redefined from Syariah perspective.
Based on the definition by FAO, we found that the element of halal and
tayyibah should be included in defining food security from Syariah
perspective. We discovered that Islam emphasizes on food security and
rank it as al-daruriyyat, which has to be fulfilled by everyone. In order
to ensure food security among the society, Islam has employed numerous
mechanisms such as paying zakat fitrah, dam, kaffarah, fidyah and
sadaqah that are applicable to Muslims and these are considered as
part of `ibadah (worship).
