#ISLAMICFINANCERESEARCH Islamic Banking & Finance Explained: Principles, History, and How It Works Welcome to our comprehensive guide on Islamic Banking and Finance, where we dive deep into the unique and ethical world of Sharia-compliant financial systems. In this video, we uncover how Islamic banks operate differently from conventional banks, focusing on ethical principles derived from Islamic law (Sharia) that promote fairness, transparency, and social justice. In today’s financial world, where interest-based lending is the norm, Islamic banks offer an alternative by strictly adhering to principles that prohibit interest (riba) and speculative transactions (gharar). Instead of charging or paying interest, Islamic banks work on profit-and-loss sharing models, asset-based financing, and ethical investment practices.
