People prefer to consume products and services that donot violate their religious beliefs. On the other hand, this tendency hasparticularly influenced their preferences and activities in the spheres ofbanking, food, and tourism. The Halal concept, which is important for Muslims,is particularly salient in the context of tourism. This study examines theimpacts Muslim tourists and non-Muslim tourists have on Turkey’s tourism incomeby using regression analysis. This study focuses on the period between 1996 and2015. The study also compares the impacts Arab tourists and non-Arab touristshave on Turkey’s tourism income. The results reveal that Muslim touristscontribute less to Turkey’s tourism income than their non-Muslim counterparts.On the other hand, we have also found that Arab tourists contribute more toTurkey’s tourism income than non-Arab tourists.

İnsanlar inançlarını ihlal etmeyen yan ürünler vehizmetler tüketmeyi tercih etmektedirler. Bu durum bankacılık, gıda ve turizmsektöründe açıkça etkisini göstermiştir. Müslümanlar için önemli olan Helalkavramı, özellikle turizm bağlamında son zamanlarda dikkat çeken bir husustur.Bu çalışma 1996 ve 2015 yılları arasındaki döneme odaklanarak Müslüman vegayrimüslim turistlerin Türkiye’nin turizm gelirleri üzerindeki etkileriniregresyon analizini kullanarak incelemektedir. Çalışma aynı zamanda Arapturistlerin ve Arap olmayan turistlerin Türkiye turizm geliri üzerindekietkilerini de karşılaştırmaktadır. Sonuçlar, Müslüman turistlerin Müslümanolmayan meslektaşlarına göre Türkiye turizm gelirine daha az katkıdabulunduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Öte yandan, Arap turistlerini, Arap olmayanturistlere göre Türkiye turizm gelirine daha fazla katkıdabulunduğu tespit edilmiştir.
