Consumer protection is in line with the development of the world economy. The rapid development of the world economy, especially in the trade sector, produces various types and variations of each type of goods and/or services that can be consumed. For consumers, information about goods and/or services is a basic need, before they use sources of funds to conduct consumer transactions with these goods and/or services. The right to correct information is one of the rights of consumers as regulated in Article 4 of Law no. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection. One source of the correct information is the label. In article 1 paragraph (3) of PP no. 69 of 1999 concerning Food Labels and Advertisements defines that what is meant by Food Labels is "any information regarding food in the form of pictures, writing, a combination of both or other forms that are attached to food, inserted into, affixed to or part of food packaging". From the definition of the label, it is known that the label contains information about the food produced. However, the problem of labeling, especially regarding food labels, has received less attention from consumers and business actors. Information that is not true and misleads consumers results in losses to consumers which ultimately results in legal consequences for business actors in taking responsibility for them. The type of research used in this research is normative legal research, which is a study that places norms as the object of research in this case is Law no. 8 of 1999. The type of approach used in this research is descriptive analytical approach, namely research based on one or two interrelated variables based on general theories/concepts that are applied to explain a set of data or show comparisons or relationships. Data collection is done by researching library materials (Library Research). Legal data analysis in this paper uses qualitative data. From the results of this research, it can be concluded that the provisions for labeling food products meet the principles of consumer protection and violations of food product labeling by business actors can be subject to civil, criminal and administrative responsibility.

Food producers and consumers are confronted with ever-growing choices and increasing competition within the EU and around the world. This has already led to various cases of food fraud and a call for political and legal action. Food fraud can be defined as ‘‘the deliberate and intentional substitution, addition tampering or misrepresentation of food, food ingredients or food packaging, labelling, product information, or false or misleading statements made about a food product’’. Meanwhile, the issue of “food fraud”, by means of employing names, symbols and images of third countries and thereby inducing a false impression on the consumer, appears to have been neglected despite its increasing economic impact. While the EU recently approved two new Geographical Indications (hereinafter, GIs) from third countries, the issue of the protection of Italian products against “rip–off Italian products” with Italian sounding names has taken centre–stage again.

Food safety is one of WHO’s primary concerns during a pandemic. The current Covid-19 pandemic requires us to boost our immune system by eating a healthy and balanced diet. Food consumed by the masses must be free of chemical and biological substances that can be harmful for the body. Nowadays, food products have developed to be more innovative, such as packaged processed food products that can be stored for a long time, generally using Food Additives. The safety of packaged processed food products must be guaranteed by the manufacturers in order to guarantee consumer protection. To ensure this, the government has established the Consumer Protection Law; the Government Regulation on Food Safety, Quality and Nutrition; and the Food and Drug Administration Division.

Qibla direction is one of the important things in Islam. Especially in the prayer worship. Al-Quran and Hadith have explained about the direction of qibla during the lifetime of the Prophet. The Problems begun  when Muslims spread all  the world as it is today. Muslims who are far from Mecca can not see the Ka’bah, so it is difficult to determine the "ainul  Ka'bah". But now the rapid development of technology makes it easy for Muslims to determine the direction of the Qibla appropriately. In this case, however, the ulama' do ijtihad with their fatwa regarding how precisely facing the Qibla is permissible for those who cannot see the Ka'bah. This study aims to explain how 'Indonesian' ulama in this case the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI) and 'Egyptian' ulama (Dar al-Ifta 'al-Misriyyah) resolve the problem and explain what lies behind the views of both. This study is a comparative normative study using a qualitative approach. The study data was taken from the MUI fatwas and Dar al-Ifta 'al-Misriyyah. The results of the study showed that the MUI fatwa initially decided the direction of the qibla of Indonesian Muslims to face westward, but then a new fatwa emerged afterwards which decided the qibla of Indonesian Muslims to face northwest with varying positions according to the location of their respective regions. In contrast to the MUI fatwa, the fatwa from Dar al-Ifta 'al-Misriyyah shows that for those who cannot see the Kaaba it is permissible to deviate slightly from the actual qibla direction with a 45 degree limit in the right or left direction.
