This research discusses comparisons between Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) number 24 of 2012 about the use of bekicot for non-food (such as medicine and cosmetics) and fatwa number 25 of 2012 concerning the law on cultivating and consuming bekicot. Scientifically known as Achatina fulica, bekicot are considered disgusting animals and are classified as vermin according to Islamic scholars, so it is forbidden to consume them. However, on the other hand, bekicot have medicinal and cosmetic benefits.
This research uses a normative approach with normative research methods, as well as legal inference methods in the form of qiyas and maslahah mursalah as the basis for analyzing fatwa research. The results of the study show that the MUI prohibits the consumption of snails because they are considered hasyarat (creeping) and khabaits (dirty) animals. However, it allows the use of snails for medicine and cosmetics based on the principles of benefit and harmlessness, because the results of the study show that it is not the snail itself that is used, but the outer part, which is considered pure.
