Tulisan ini membahas masalah komodifikasi agama dalam Islam, yaitu melihat perspektif hukum Islam terhadap suatu proses yang mengarahkan simbol-simbol dan ekspresi keberagamaan Umat Muslim dalam kerangka market-based power sebagai komoditas atau objek bisnis. Teori yang digunakan adalah teori Maqashid asy-Syariáh, untuk mengetahui tetap terjaga atau tidak-nya maksud atau tujuan penetapan hukum syariah dalam praktek-praktek agama dalam dimensi ekonomi tersebut. Hal ini menjadi relevan karena bagi seorang muslim kesesuaian dengan tujuan syariah yaitu tercapainya maslahah yang merupakan hikmah ditetapkannya suatu hukum dalam Islam merupakan hal yang sangat prinsip. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah pendekatan normatif dalam perspektif fiqih Maqashid. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dalam konteks Islam, terdapat beberapa hal yang menampakkan adanya gejala komodivikasi agama yang dikemas dalam berbagai bentuk Industri. Beberapa jenis industri masih ada yang dibangun dengan rasionalitas Ekonomi untuk mencari keuntungan duniawi semata dan mengabaikan prinsip-prinsip kemaslahatan.
