Islamic finance is one of the fastest-growing sectors in international banking and finance. Owing to the increasing availability and ease of access to Islamic services, Islamic finance has become increasingly important not only in Muslim countries, but around the world, making it a global industry. Under the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) as well as in some regions, such as the Middle East and North Africa, a dual financial system is implemented, where Sharia-compliant products are marketed alongside conventional financial systems.In this thoroughly researched collection of chapters, researchers from around the world examine the role of Islamic finance in the economies and prospects of different companies. They discuss Islamic finance literature from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. The theoretical section of the book consists of conceptual chapters that enable readers to critically evaluate and expand their understanding of accounting and finance. The chapters in the empirical section of this handbook discuss and interpret empirical evidence to provide clear implications for practice, research, and society. This section bridges the gap between theory and practice and offers suggestions for future research. Islamic Accounting and Finance is geared towards scholars and students, but it is also of use to banking and finance practitioners.

The D-8 (Developing Eight) organisation was officially formed in 1997 and has Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan and Turkey as full members. The D-8 economies encompass nearly 62% of the Muslim population or about 1.17 billion people globally. The economic, cultural, social, political and geographical diversity that exists amongst the D-8 member countries differs radically from other Muslim or regional blocks. Furthermore, D-8 member countries are developing economies that do not solely rely on oil, ancient civilizations, or roles as historical powerhouses, but their populations aspire to be better educated, scientifically more advanced, have higher incomes and improved human rights. It is imperative to study the implications of these developments for cultural identity and life quality. This book studies the contemporary socio-economic developments and challenges faced by D-8 countries. It explores questions on the socio-economic and political formation, sustainability, economic participation, and the vitality of the D-8 member countries. It deepens our understanding of recent global economic systems and governance, and suggests areas for future research and publications.

Wie sollte man seine Rolle und seinen Lebenszweck kennen, wenn man nicht klare und praktische Anweisungen darüber erhält, was Gott von einem will und erwartet? Hier kommt die Notwendigkeit des Prophetentums ins Spiel. Deshalb hat Gott der Menschheit Tausende von Gesandten und Propheten gesandt, um seine Botschaft zu übermitteln und mit uns zu kommunizieren. Jedes Volk der Erde hat einen Propheten erhalten. Sie alle verkündeten die gleiche allgemeine Botschaft, dass es nur eine Gottheit gibt, die es wert ist, angebetet zu werden. Er ist der Eine & Einzige Gott, ohne Partner, Sohn, Tochter oder Gleichen. Gott sandte Gesandte und Propheten, um die Menschheit davon abzuhalten, geschaffene Wesen zu verehren, und sie dazu zu bringen, ihren Schöpfer, den Schöpfer aller Dinge, anzubeten. Die Propheten kamen, um ihr Volk zu lehren, wer ihr Schöpfer ist, wie man eine Beziehung zu ihm aufbaut und wie man ihn liebt. Die Propheten lehrten ihr Volk, dass das Leben nur eine Prüfung ist, bei der die Erfolgreichen auf ewig ins Paradies eingehen und die Erfolglosen die ultimative Strafe im Jenseits erleiden werden. Aus der unendlichen Barmherzigkeit und Liebe Gottes sandte Gott immer wieder Gesandte mit Büchern von Gott, um die Menschheit zu leiten - angefangen beim Propheten Adam, über Noah, Abraham, Ismael, Jakob, Moses, den Propheten Jesus und den Propheten Muhammad, Friede sei mit ihnen allen. Viele der Propheten finden sich in den jüdischen und christlichen Traditionen wieder. Alle früheren Gesandten und Bücher außer dem Heiligen Koran und dem Propheten Muhammad wurden nur zu einer bestimmten Gruppe von Menschen herabgesandt und sollten nur für einen bestimmten Zeitraum befolgt werden. Der Prophet Jesus, Friede sei mit ihm, war zum Beispiel einer der mächtigsten Gesandten Gottes, der mit derselben allgemeinen Botschaft wie alle früheren Propheten herabgesandt wurde, aber nur zu den Kindern Israels - dem Volk, das vor uns lebte - als ihr letzter Prophet gesandt wurde, weil sie die Gebote Gottes missachteten und von den Gesetzen abwichen, die der vorherige Gesandte Moses (Friede sei mit ihm) überliefert hatte.Immer, wenn Gott Gesandte mit Offenbarungen schickte, haben die Menschen nach deren Tod die Offenbarungen Gottes entstellt und verändert. Was eine reine Offenbarung Gottes war, wurde mit Mythen, Menschenworten, Aberglauben, irrationalen philosophischen Ideologien und Götzenanbetung verunreinigt. Die Religion Gottes ging in einer Fülle von Religionen unter. So wurde der Prophet Jesus (Friede sei mit ihm) gesandt, um die Botschaft zu reformieren, die sein Vorgänger, der Gesandte Moses (Friede sei mit ihm), überbracht hatte. Der Prophet Mohammad kam, um die Botschaft des Propheten Jesus zu reformieren, da sie von seinen Anhängern entstellt worden war und in ihrer ursprünglichen Form nicht überlebt hatte.Als sich die Menschheit in den Tiefen des finsteren Zeitalters befand, sandte Gott der Allmächtige seinen letzten und endgültigen Gesandten, den Propheten Muhammad, Friede sei mit ihm, und seine letzte Offenbarung, den Koran, um die Menschheit zu erlösen. Der Koran und der letzte Gesandte bestätigten alles, was allen früheren Gesandten in der Vergangenheit offenbart worden war. Im Gegensatz zu den früheren Gesandten und Büchern wurde der Prophet Mohammad (Friede sei mit ihm) der gesamten Menschheit gesandt. Nach ihm wird es keinen Gesandten oder Propheten mehr geben, und nach dem Koran wird es kein Buch mehr geben, denn beide sind dazu bestimmt, von allen Menschen befolgt zu werden, nicht nur von einer bestimmten Gruppe von Menschen, und sie sind auch nicht für einen bestimmten Zeitrahmen bestimmt.

This book provides an authoritative and comprehensive overview of Waqf (endowment), addressing specific issues, models, solutions, structures and practices. As Islamic finance has gained in significance, so too has the institution of Waqf, working towards creating an enterprising and an entrepreneurial community across the globe, in order to meet the underlying objectives of the sustainable development goals (SDGs) by targeting the low-income group in particular.The book analyses the historical context of Waqf as well as its revival in the digital era. It addresses the laws and policies affecting the management of Waqf, such as Maqasid al-Shari'ah, law and policies, law and fiscal reform, regulations applied within Muslim countries, judicial procedures and dispute resolutions and covers the core issues concerning the formalities of Waqf, its management and corporate governance questions. The book includes a series of specialised chapters focusing on the products and services of Waqf, covering product innovation, product development, and then assesses the risk factors in Waqf and Waqf Takaful. Finally, it focuses on the challenges of Waqf and offers recommendations for the way forward.A timely and practical guide, comprising a literature review and future research directions, as well as a number of international case studies, this will be a key reference for academics, students, researchers, practitioners and policy makers.

This book advocates for an analytical turn in the study of Islam in Europe by using space as a central conceptual lens. It argues that the critical potential of a spatialized analysis in the field of Islam in Europe remains largely unexplored.
