Reviews / Votes
"In a relatively short space of time the sukuk industry has become the most vibrant chapter of IBF. Rapid progress has, however, given rise to very many questions. This book provides insightful responses to topical questions that the students and scholars of Shariah would find refreshing and relevant." - Sheikh Nizam Yaqubi, Shariah scholar and advisor to numerous Islamic financial and institutions worldwide.More details
