Abstract
The present work aimed to identify and describe the Malaysian Muslim community's understanding of health and cosmetic products related to the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad which are available in the Malaysian market. The demographics of this understanding are examined with respect to gender, age, marital and working status, highest level of education, and monthly income earned. A survey was conducted in 2017. A structured questionnaire pertaining to such products was used to capture the relevant data. This survey implemented a multistage design stratified by state, proportionate to the size of the state population, and was representative of the Malaysian population. Data analysis of the results was carried out using frequency and Chi-square analysis with the help of Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS) version 22.0. The paper concluded that the community's understanding of the term 'prophetic products' is that it refers to various products that Prophet Muhammad used and/or spoke of approvingly such as dates, raisins, pomegranates, honey, and others. It was observed that these ingredients were strongly identified in public perception as prophetic health and cosmetic products and that there is consequently great demand for these among Malaysians. This factor was identified through various elements. First, the combination of things recognized as prophetic items such as dates, raisins, pomegranates, honey, and others within the product. Second, the labeling of merchandise as prophetic products. Prophetic health merchandise was more popular among Malaysians than were cosmetic products.
