DESCRIPTION:
In this course, participants will be introduced to the Islamic ethics (and basic Islamic laws) of financial transactions, through a survey of the field’s principles and rules. Special attention will be given to applying these principles to contemporary financial scenarios.
After a brief introduction to Islamic law and ethics, the course covers the fundamentals of financial contracts in Islam, including the prohibitions on riba (interest/usury) and gharar (indeterminateness).
The course then turns to discuss contemporary applications, such as banking, investment, insurance, and estate planning. By the end of the course, students should be able to demonstrate ethical decision-making abilities in personal financial matters based on Islamic teachings.

“My experience with BIS has been transformative. I have had direct access to scholars and their knowledge, alhamdulillah in a way I have never experienced before. We’ve deeply explored the Muslim experience academically, challenging many of my previously held beliefs and narratives. I am forever grateful to BIS, the scholars and the organizers for this experience”.
