Ujrah in Islamic muamalat is an appreciation for a task that has commercial value. Therefore, ujrah needs to be studied in depth which has been practiced from the past to the present. In Malaysia, the development of the halal industry has been explored through research through the Halal Product Research Institute (IPPH) Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). Analysis of the halal of a product is one of the services offered by IPPH UPM. This paper aims to explain ujrah according to fiqh muamalah and its application in analyzing a halal product in IPPH UPM. Also, identify the role of this institute in mobilizing the halal industry through research. Therefore, this study uses descriptive qualitative methods through library sources from turath books and scholarly books as well as journals. Apart from that, also held a structured interview with the institute. The results of the study found that ujrah serves as a guide in providing analysis services on halal products in IPPH. The implication of the study is the guarantee that halal products are implemented after the analysis is done will give the halal confidence of a product to the halal industry and expand the halalan tayiban products to the global market.
