This section is based on works of Mirakhor and Alaabed (2013a) and Mirakhor and Alabed (2013b). 2. Bogle (2012). Out of US$ 250 billion, US$ 25 billion went to Initial Public Offerings (IPO) and the remaining US$ 25 billion to established companies. 3. For further details see, http://www.mauldineconomics.com/. 4. The absence of debt means the economy is highly efficient and saves consider- able resources that are involved with the cost of issuing loans, administrating, recovering, and litigating loans (Carroll, 1965). 5. Sukuk (short form or abbreviation of sukuk al-ijarah) is an Islamic bond. It is a negotiable financial instrument issued on the basis of an asset to be leased. Investors provide funds to a lessor, such as a bank. The lessor acquires an asset and leases it out if it is not already leased out. The investors become owners of the leased asset in proportion to their investment. The holders of these bonds are entitled to collect rental payments directly from the lessee. These instru- ments can be made tradable on a stock exchange. 6. In conventional finance, the rate of return on equities is influenced by abun- dance of credit as illustrated by the South Sea Company in 1720, the Great Depression in 1929, and recent stock market experience (2000–2013). For instance, the marginal production of capital may be 4 percent per year; how- ever, the yield on stock may be 25 percent per year. It is speculation fueled by low interest rates and massive credit that weakens the link between equity returns and marginal product of capital (Holden, 1907). Speculators (e.g., hedge funds, equity funds, brokers, etc.) reap large gains from cheap money. Inevitably, distorted stock markets reach a tipping point beyond which they crash, with disastrous consequences. These elements of instability do not exist in Islamic finance, where equity returns cannot be distorted by credit and interest. Notes M 251 6 Financial and Capital Market Policies * For a discussion of role of social capital and markets in risk-sharing financial system, see Ng, Ibrahim, and Mirakhor (2013). 1. See Mirakhor (2010). 2. Beta is a measure of the degree to which the price of a stock or portfolio is cor- related to a benchmark, such as the overall financial market (measured by an index like the S&P 500 for US, stocks). The stronger the correlation, the larger the beta. The beta of the portfolio is simply the weighted average beta of assets within the portfolio. 3. In 1952, Harry M. Markowitz proposed a portfolio construction model based on mean-variance analysis. 4. The CML is a line that plots the increase in return an investor can expect to get in return for taking an additional risk. The CML with the highest slope would reflect the Markowitz efficient portfolio. The slope of the CML determines the equilibrium market price of risk. 5. Shiller, along with economist Mark Kamstara, has proposed that countries replace much of their existing national debt with shares of the “earnings” of their economies. The shares, or “trills,” would pay a quarterly dividend equal to exactly one-trillionth of a country’s quarterly gross domestic product. 6. Eichengreen and Hausmann (1999). The original sin refers to the fact that most governments/companies are unable to borrow abroad in their domestic currency; as a result, foreign borrowing always results in currency mismatch. This mismatch brings in a new dimension of risk—currency risk. 7. In a recent study across 142 countries, the Legatum Institute (2012) finds that social capital correlates negatively with government regulation. 7 Fiscal and Monetary Policy in Islam 1. Çizakça, Murat (2013), “Finance and Development in Islam: A Historical Perspective and a Brief Look Forward,” in Zamir Iqbal and Abbas Mirakhor (eds), Economic Development and Islamic Finance, The World Bank, Washington, DC, USA. 8 Developing Social Capital * This chapter is drawn upon valuable works of Ng, Ibrahim, Mirakhor (2013), Ng, Ibrahim, Mirakhor (2014a) and Ng, Ibrahim, Mirakhor (2014b). We thank the authors for their permission to benefit from their valuable work. 1. Muslim countries generally have lower levels of social capital, with Jordan, Turkey, and Malaysia ranked 44th, 49th, and 50th respectively according to Lee et al.’s social capital index. Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Morocco, 252 M Notes and Uganda are ranked in the last quartile of the index (2011). Rehman and Askari (2010a, 2010b) find a low level of adherence to Islamic principles in most predominantly Muslim countries. 2. According to the United Kingdom Islamic Finance Secretariat in October 2013, there is a wide margin of growth as Shari’ah compliant financial assets currently make up around 1 percent of the global financial assets while the Muslim population is around a quarter of the world’s population (TheCityUK 2013). 3. Professor Kay’s recommendation for an investors’ forum to be established to facilitate collective engagement by investors in British companies, and the British government’s acknowledgment of the involvement of overseas institu- tions in the investors’ forum, can also help to build “bridging” social capital. 4. The Legatum Institute shows that countries with low levels of social capi- tal, such as Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain, and France, also have low levels of regulatory effectiveness compared with other developed Western European countries. 5. This can be done by “removing all legal, administrative, economic, financial, and regulatory biases that favor debt and place equity holdings at a disadvan- tage” (Askari, Iqbal, Krichene, and Mirakhor, 2011, p. 122). 6. According to the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, “SROs must create rules that allow for disciplining members for improper conduct and for establishing measures to ensure market integrity and investor protection. SRO proposed rules are subject to Securities and Exchange Commission’s review and pub- lished to solicit public comment.” 7. Section 29(5) and (6) of the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 of Malaysia provides that members of Shari’ah committee of an institution shall at all times comply with the internal policies and procedures adopted by such institution to implement standards specified by the Central Bank of Malaysia. Failure to comply with such standards will result in an offense that is liable to a maximum of eight years’ imprisonment or a maximum of 25 million ringgit or both. An institution and any director, officer or controller of such institution shall provide information that is accurate, complete, not false, or misleading in any material particular to the Shari’ah committee to enable the committee to carry out its duties or perform its functions under the act. 9 Financial Inclusion: Implications for Public Policy 1. World Bank (2013). 2. Among Muslims globally (in 148 countries) without a formal account, 7 percent cite religion as barrier, which is the least frequently cited barrier among this group. 3. Although sadaqah contributions are commonly considered a voluntary contri- bution, one could strongly argue that all such contributions should be consid- ered mandatory since these are ordained by Allah (swt) in the Qur’an. However, Notes M 253 these cannot be considered mandatory to qualify them to be taken by force by a government. 4. Iqbal and Roy (2014). 5. For further detail, see work by Askari, Iqbal and Mirakhor (2009), Chapra (2008), and Asutay (2011). 6. The three main forms of Islamic finance include murabhah (trust finance), musharkah (partnership finance), and mudarbah (markup contract sale). These are in addition to Salam contracts, Ijarah and Qard-al-Hassan, and Awqaf. Other long-term and sophisticated forms include salam forward purchase credit and istisna project financing.

  • Developing a Sharīʿah-Compliant Precious Metal Backed Cryptocurrency
    JKAU: Islamic Econ., Vol. 33 No. 1, pp: 3-20 (January 2020) DOI:10.4197/Islec. 33-1.1 Developing A Sharīʿah-Compliant Precious Metal Backed Cryptocurrency Mousa Ajouz Assistant Professor, Institute of Islamic Banking and Finance, IIUM, Malaysia Adam Abdullah Associate Professor, Al-Qasimia University, College of Economics and Management, UAE Salina Kassim Associate Professor, Institute of Islamic Banking and Finance, IIUM, Malaysia ABSTRACT. Under the fiat standard, money is no longer backed by any assets, but rather it is backed by debt. The implication of such a system is the emergence of many socio-economic problems. Restoring the value of money has long been a controversial topic, hampered in part by the lack of theoretical and empirical evidences. Therefore, this research aims to develop a Sharīʿah-compliant precious metal backed crypto- currency (PMBC) mechanism. To achieve this, a general product development process is adopted, which consists of four phases involving planning, concept development, system-level design, and testing. In addition, Sharīʿah scholars and financial experts were interviewed to validate the mechanism theoretically. The result of this research was to introduce a Sharīʿah-compliant PMBC where the description and the modus operandi of the PMBC were presented. This research defined PMBC as a digital currency, backed by precious metals that uses strong cryptography. It is designed to fulfill all the functions of money in accordance with Sharīʿah while operating as a peer- to-peer payment system. Overall, it was found that all the resources needed to develop and implement PMBC are already available. The scholars and experts interviewed supported the implementation of PMBC, but there are a variety of challenges and reservations.

  • A Para-Anthropological Analysis of Money in Islamic Finance by Rehan
    Commodity or Token?: A Para-anthropological Analysis of Money in Islamic Finance by Rehan Sayeed B.A. (University of Victoria), 2019 An essay submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the HONOURS PROGRAM in the Department of Anthropology University of Victoria © Rehan Sayeed, 2019 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. Abstract Money, in conventional scholarship, is represented as a commodity or a token. In a conventional economy, most money is created through bank loans based on interest-bearing debt. However, Islam prohibits the payment of interest (riba). This brings forth a challenge for the Islamic financial system: if interest-bearing debt (riba) is prohibited in Islam and that most money in modern economies is created through extending credit, how is money created in Islamic finance? Considering, the dual nature of money as both material (as a commodity) and representation (as a token), this essay examines the nature of money in Islam through the way money creation has been theorized in Islamic finance. There are two primary schools of thought: dinarism and tokenism. The former resembles commodity theorists and the latter resemble tokenists. In this paper, I reflect on the discourse around money’s materiality and abstract symbolism in Islamic finance and analyze its potential in terms of furthering the debates within the anthropology of money. Moreover, I describe how the semiotic nature of money is problematized in Islamic finance. Even though critics of Islamic finance have argued against its ‘Islamicity’ as they find it operationally no different than conventional finance, the prohibition of interest central to Islamic finance offers an unexplored alternative that abates the inimical cycle of perpetual debt rooted in the capitalist economy.

Contemporary Islamic Finance: From Socioeconomic Idealism to Pure Legalism Walid S. Hegazy* Ever since the first wave of European armies reached the Mediterranean shores of the last Islamic empire in the late eighteenth century,' Western influence has dominated many important aspects of Muslim life, most notably in the areas of trade and finance. Traditional Islamic contracts and financial instruments that once prevailed in Muslim commercial markets have been replaced by Western financial instruments and institutions. The wholesale adoption of the French civil code (or the Napoleonic Code) by most Middle Eastern countries is unambiguous evidence of the magnitude of such European influence. By the beginning of the twentieth century, many pro-independence political movements began to form strong resistance to Western influence and colonial insensitivity to Islamic culture and social values. Some movements, such as the Egyptian Muslim Brothers Movement (Harakat al-Ikhwan al-Muslimin), joined their demands for political independence with demands for adopting homegrown and Islamic-inspired social and economic reforms.

  • Islamic Economics: a Survey of the Literature
    Religions and Development Research Programme Islamic Economics: A Survey of the Literature Asad Zaman International Institute of Islamic Economics International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan Working Paper 22 - 2008 Religions and Development Research Programme The Religions and Development Research Programme Consortium is an international research partnership that is exploring the relationships between several major world religions, development in low-income countries and poverty reduction. The programme is comprised of a series of comparative research projects that are addressing the following questions: z How do religious values and beliefs drive the actions and interactions of individuals and faith-based organisations? z How do religious values and beliefs and religious organisations influence the relationships between states and societies? z In what ways do faith communities interact with development actors and what are the outcomes with respect to the achievement of development goals? The research aims to provide knowledge and tools to enable dialogue between development partners and contribute to the achievement of development goals. We believe that our role as researchers is not to make judgements about the truth or desirability of particular values or beliefs, nor is it to urge a greater or lesser role for religion in achieving development objectives. Instead, our aim is to produce systematic and reliable knowledge and better understanding of the social world. The research focuses on four countries (India, Pakistan, Nigeria and Tanzania), enabling the research team to study most of the major world religions: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism and African traditional belief systems. The research projects will compare two or more of the focus countries, regions within the countries, different religious traditions and selected development activities and policies.

Objek penelitian terdiri dari 13 Bank Umum Syariah dan 21 Unit Usaha Syariah yang terdata di Otoritas Jasa Keuangan pada periode 2015-2017. Content Analysis digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi tema dan item pada laporan tahunan bank. Analisis regresi linier berganda merupakan metode yang digunakan dalam pengolahan data. Penelitian ini membuktikan variabel jumlah rapat DPS, rangkap jabatan DPS, ukuran DPS serta profitabilitas berpengaruh signifikan terhadap Islamic Social Reporting. Sementara itu, variabel jumlah DPS dan latar belakang pendidikan DPS ditemukan tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap ISR. Hal ini menunjukkan jumlah anggota DPS tidak memberikan kontribusi terhadap pelaporan sosial jika jarang melakukan rapat. Adanya Sertifikasi Dewan Syariah Nasional menyiratkan tidak ada kekhususan latar belakang pendidikan DPS. Penentukan Indeks ISR sangat subjektif, maka diharapkan Dewan Syariah Nasional dapat merancang pedoman khusus penerapan Indeks ISR dan dikonvergensi dengan Indeks ISR lainnnya. Kata kunci: dewan pengawas syariah; bank syariah; islamic social reporting.

  • Islam and the Moral Economy: the Challenge of Capitalism
    This page intentionally left blank Islam and the Moral Economy217905 How do modern Muslims adapt their traditions to engage with today’s world? Charles Tripp’s erudite and incisive book considers one of the most significant challenges faced by Muslims over the last sixty years: the challenge of capitalism. By reference to the works of noted Muslim scholars, the author shows how, faced by this challenge, these intellectuals have devised a range of strategies which have enabled Muslims to remain true to their faith, whilst engaging effectively with a world not of their own making. The work is framed around the development of their ideas on Islamic socialism, economics and the rationale for Islamic banking. While there are those who have resorted to confrontation or insularity to cope with the challenges of modernity, most have aspired to innovation and ingenuity in the search for compromise and interaction with global capitalism in the twenty-first century. CHARLES TRIPP is Reader in Politics with reference to the Middle East in the Department of Political and International Studies, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. His many publications include Iran and Iraq at War (1988, with Shahram Chubin), Iran–Saudi Arabia Relations and Regional Order (1996, with Shahram Chubin) and A History of Iraq (2000, 2002).

  • "Interest" and the Paradox of Contemporary Islamic Law and Finance
    Fordham International Law Journal Volume 27, Issue 1 2003 Article 6 ”Interest” and the Paradox of Contemporary Islamic Law and Finance Mahmoud A. El-Gamal∗ ∗ Copyright c 2003 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj ”Interest” and the Paradox of Contemporary Islamic Law and Finance Mahmoud A. El-Gamal Abstract In Sections 1 and 2, the article shall provide a brief introduction to various notions of Islamic law as they exist today, as well as the common-law nature of Islamic jurisprudence to establish the possibility of finding a compromise that renders minor modifications of the existing juristic posi- tions coherent. In Sections 3 and 4, the article will provide translations of the entire Azhar Islamic Research Institute (IRI) fatwa, and large excerpts from the Council of the Islamic Jurisprudence Academy’s (IJA) rebuttal together with discussions of the juristic backgrounds of each opinion. In Section 5, the author will discuss the ideological roots of contemporary Islamic finance, which continue to shape Muslim views, both for jurists and lay people, regarding interest and permissible profit. In Section 6, the author will provide a brief survey of the most prominent Islamic financial instruments, illustrating the incoherence of juristic views that denounce “interest” and yet main- tain that Islamic finance is “interest-free.” Lastly, the author will conclude by proposing a possible compromise between the two extreme views espoused by the IRI fatwa and the IJA rebuttal, which would allow for a coherent juristic and financial nexus in Islamic finance.
