Journal of Law, Policy and Globalization www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3240 (Paper) ISSN 2224-3259 (Online) Vol.45, 2016 The Legislative Challenges of Islamic Banking in Tanzania Mzee Mustafa Mzee Assistant Lecturer Department of the General Studies, Zanzibar Institute of Financial Administration Abstract Tanzania is a multi-religious and a multi ethnic society with a common law legal structure. The Islamic Banking system emerged in 2008 in Tanzania and is growing very fast. However, the adoption of Islamic banking in Tanzania has been accompanied by some legislative challenges which cannot effectively serve the purpose for which the financial institutions were set up. This is a result of the single legal framework working with the Islamic Banking. In this context the enactment of the legislation to allow Islamic Banking to operate according to Islamic rules are needed and give room in financial markets for Islamic financial transactions. Keywords: key words, Tanzania, Islamic Law, Islamic bank 1. Introduction The word bank in Tanzania has been defined as an entity that is engaged in the banking business. The banking business means the business of receiving funds from the general public through the acceptance of deposits payable upon demand or after a fixed period or after notice, or any similar operation through the frequent sale or placement of bonds, certificates, notes or other securities, and to use such funds, in whole or in part, for loans or investments for the account of and at the risk of the person doing such business. 1 Therefore, a bank is an institution which provides fundamental banking services such as accepting deposits and providing loans. -
