Islamic Banking has the same purpose as conventional banking except that it claims to operate in accordance with the rules of shariah, known as Fiqh al-Muamalat (“Islamic rules” on transactions). The basic principle of Islamic banking is sharing of profit and loss and the prohibition of riba’ (interest). Amongst the common Islamic concepts used in Islamic banking are profit sharing (Mudharabah), safekeeping (Wadiah), joint venture (Musharakah), cost plus (Murabahah), and leasing (Ijarah).

The Entrance of Islamic Finance into the Mainstream
Through Janus’ Eyes: Islamic Finance Looks Back and Forth
It’s been a year of contrasts for Islamic Finance. Its integration into the international financial landscape has been heralded as a success, yet one catch is its consequent exposure to a global financial crisis created by the conventional systems’ flaws.
Risk management in Islamic finance: what are the banks doing? In our previous article on risk management, we examined the nature and extent of the risks facing the Islamic banking industry. In this follow-up piece, we will ask what Islamic banks are doing to minimise these risks, and whether their measures go far enough.
Ethical Investing Guide: The Practice
Ethical investors in the UK are growing in number, especially in the light of the global financial crisis, which exposed some aspects of the world’s traditional finance system as irresponsible at best, corrupt at worst. In the second part Global Islamic Finance magazine shows the way how to in practice make an ethical investment.
Time for Islamic finance to really come of age
Notwithstanding the recent controversy surrounding Dubai World, Islamic finance is enjoying a golden period at the moment; even the most conservative researchers estimate that the industry is growing by around 15% a year, fuelled by investor interest and a surging global demand for Sharia’ah compliant products from Muslim financiers and but eagle-eyed investors.
Trading Places: A Revival for Islamic Trade Finance?
