Introduction
In today's world, filled with interest-based transactions, unlawful banking contracts, and investments, the demand for Islamic banking is rapidly growing. Many countries have witnessed a rise in the demand for Islamic banking services, and analysts predict that the Islamic banking network will surpass the conventional banking system within the next 8 to 10 years, given its current rate of expansion. Islamic banking and finance are fundamentally different from conventional banking. The core principle of Islamic banking lies in its consistency with Sharia, which prohibits the collection and payment of interest. This sets it apart from most modern financial systems, allowing money to be used for trade in tangible assets and businesses rather than for interest-based lending.
This course is designed to introduce participants to the basic principles of Islamic banking and finance, explaining how these systems work and their relevance in the modern economic landscape. Participants will explore the underlying concepts of Islamic financial instruments, funding mechanisms, and the transition from interest-based to interest-free transactions.
