Abstract
Business agility, which is essential for adapting to both external and internal changes, is critical for organizational sustainability and competitive advantage. This research examines the relationship between bookkeeping practices, business agility, and Halal business practices in Muslim-owned businesses. Using a quantitative approach, employing a descriptive-correlational design, the researchers analyzed data collected through structured surveys from 113 Muslim business owners. Findings revealed that merchandising is the predominant business type, with many businesses operating for over five years. Muslim owned businesses also revealed that they do not practice bookkeeping. Results show a significant relationship between business agility and responsive customer centricity. It was also found that Halal practices have a significant influence on the business agility of Muslim-owned businesses in terms of engaged culture. The researchers recommended activities based on the study's results, enhancing the business agility of Muslim-owned businesses in Batangas City.
