The development of Malay literature has shown the close relationship between the society in producing works. This is because of the author's sensitivity to current issues and the environment in the society that can be used as ibrah for the readers. It is found that the question posed in literary works particularly in prose works, whether it is a novel or a short story, begins from the author’s ability to convey a beneficial message in the work. From the perspective of Islam, ibrah is a teaching that can be apply as a lesson in life. Therefore, this paper will explore the ibrah based on the Malay food culture in the chosen Malay short stories, namely Bihun Goreng Berkuah Laksa, Serondeng Nasi Pulut dan Kerana Kuih Koci. The study will be observing the symbolism in Malay food in order to be aligned with the (Malay) community which is full of diversity in food and dishes. This research is a qualitative study that uses the method of textual analysis. Based on the study, it is clearly shown that through the Malay food culture, ibrah can be the guide and lesson in the struggle of life. This is because the symbolism in Malay food culture managed to educate people towards goodness, truth and beauty. Hence, this will also build the personality in unraveling the benefits that surround society today.
