innovation diffusion and ICT adoption among JAKIM halal certified company in Klang
Valley. Particularly for this research, self-administered questionnaires had been given to
the companies in finding the primary data. The framework of IT Adoption Model which

innovation diffusion (1995) was used in this paper. Finding of the survey found that the
companies have a high degree of adoption in the variables of relative advantage,
compatibility, trialability, observability and complexity. A high degree of adoption in
