Who can use Islamic Finance

1. What is Islamic Finance

Islamic finance, also known as Sharia-compliant finance, is a system of financial principles and practices that adhere to Islamic law, or Sharia.

An Islamic business loan prohibits the charging or paying of interest, as well as investing in certain industries such as alcohol, gambling, and pork. Islamic finance emphasises the principles of fairness, transparency, risk-sharing, and social responsibility.

Instead of traditional interest-based lending, it utilises various mechanisms such as profit-sharing, lease-to-own arrangements, and asset-based financing, among others.

Islamic finance is not limited to Muslims, and has gained global recognition as a viable and ethical alternative to conventional finance.
