Much has hap- pened since the launch of the inaugural State of the Global Islamic Economy Report last year. The Halal Food sector saw investments, such as the Brazilian food group BRF investing $90 million in setting up a production plant in UAE; new Halal testing technologies emerged from France, Malaysia, and UAE; Dubai began marketing its new Halal hubs; MIHAS Malaysia saw record Halal Food exhibitors and deals. Islamic Finance saw the arrival of Sukuk in western jurisdictions of the UK, Luxembourg, Hong Kong and South Africa; Arabesque and SEDCO built momen- tum around SRI investing; a mega-Islamic bank was announced from Malaysia. In Travel, Maldives saw a hotel investment in a Muslim- friendly resort; Spain, Japan, Philippines and Russia took steps to attract Muslim customers; luxury hotel chain Shaza, that is Halal lifestyle focussed, planned expansion; HalalTrip.com gained traction while HalalBooking.com offered innovative pricing features. In the Modest Fashion space, DKNY and UK-based department store John Lewis intro- duced the Muslim audience to focussed modest fashion/accessory lines. The Media and Recreation space saw the launch of a Muslim super-hero ‘Kamala Khan’ by Marvel comics; Ramadan drama-series (Musalsalat) continue their multi-million dollar pro- ductions; Bitsmedia’s Muslim Pro app reached more than 10 million downloads. The Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics sector saw Malaysia’s Halal Industry Development Corporation receive a $100 million investment for a Halal vaccine production; “H,” a Halal-certified nail polish, was launched in the GCC. In a trend towards the beginning of convergence among these sectors, Islamic designer Peter Gould coordinated to launch a clothing line with U.S.-based Artizara; MasterCard partnered with Zilzar.com, a new global Muslim lifestyle marketplace platform, and is preparing to launch a Halal benefits program for its million dollar plus Shariah-compliant card holders. The past year also saw some set-backs/controversies. Growing Halal Food screening saw Qatar pull several American brands; non-stunning of animals for Halal slaughter saw a backlash in the EU; the National Commercial Bank’s (Saudi Arabia) IPO listing saw a fatwa against investing in it; the globally growing The 99 super-hero comic/animation series also experienced a fatwa against it; several resorts in Morocco banned the burkini (the Muslim full cover bathing suits) in their pools; an Islamic fashion show in the USA got abruptly cancelled. Not to be missed, the Islamic extremist militancy, including the dramatic rise of the brutal ISIS, has put a dent in global positioning and branding of Islamic Economy sectors. — Size & momentum Despite the challenges, and driven by growing demand, the Islamic economy sectors continue to flourish. This Report represents the global Islamic economy as core sectors and their ecosystem structurally affected by Islamic values driven con- sumer lifestyle and business practices1. Collectively these majors sectors are: Islamic Finance, Halal Food and lifestyle sectors (Modest fashion, Travel, Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics, and Media and Recreation.) This 2014 –15 Report estimates that the global expenditure of Muslim consumers on food and lifestyle sectors grew 9.5%2 from previous years’ estimates to $2 tril- lion in 2013 and is expected to reach $3.7 trillion by 2019 at a compound annual growth rate of 10.8%. This forms the potential core market for Halal Food and life- style sectors. In addition, this Report estimates Islamic Finance assets at $1.66 trillion in 2013. Islamic funds and Sukuks led the growth with 14% and 11% growth year-on-year, whereas banking experienced a 5% drop in its assets. This Report estimates poten- tial the universe of Islamic Finance assets in its core market (assuming optimal scenario) to be $4.2 trillion3 in 2014. 1 DinarStandard definition 2 From updated 2012 baseline Muslim consumer food & lifestyle sector expenditure of $1.82 billion 3 The optimal scenario assumes full regulatory support for Islamic finance in OIC markets and a 100% Islamic banking pene- tration with the proportionate Muslim demographic of OIC countries. p.6 State of the Gloabal Islamic Economy 2014 - 2015 Executive Summary Executive — Values-drivers The customers of this Islamic economy are universal with shared values. At the highest level, values-based customer needs that are driving these Islamic economy sectors include Islamic/ethical financing, Halal (lawful) and Tayyab (pure) food, modest clothing, family-friendly travel, gender interaction considerations, and reli- gious practices. These needs also extend to business practices that seek Islamic business financing, investment and insurance services (Takaful). It is however impor- tant to recognise the wide diversity in awareness and adoption of Halal within the core customer base of Muslims globally. — Introducing GIEI This year the Report introduces a formal Global Islamic Economy Indicator (GIEI), a composite index that presents the current development health of Islamic economy sectors across 70 core countries. Malaysia, UAE and Bahrain lead this inaugural composite index. The indicator is not a ranking the current size and growth of each market but evaluates the quality of the overall Islamic economy ecosystem, includ- ing social considerations each has relative to their size4. The ranking is weighted towards Islamic Finance and the Halal Food ecosystems given their relative sizes to other sectors. Top countries vary per sector reflecting relative strengths in each of the sectors covered in this Report. — Halal food & lifestyle sector update DinarStandard estimates of the global Muslim population expenditure on Islamic economy identified sectors (besides finance) are: • Food market: Global Muslim spending on Food and Beverages (F&B) has increased 10.8% to reach $1,292 billion in 2013. This takes the potential core Halal Food market to be 17.7% of the global expenditure in 2013 compared to 16.6% the year before. This expenditure is expected to grow to a $2,537 billion market by 2019 and will account for 21.2% of the global expenditure. Top countries with Muslim consumer food consumption are Indonesia ($190 billion), Turkey ($168 billion), Pakistan ($108 billion) and Iran ($97 billion) based on 2013 data. Meanwhile, Malaysia, UAE and Australia lead the Halal Food Indicator that focusses on the health of the Halal Food ecosystem a country has relative to its size. A special focus report on Halal Food Logistics estimates logistic costs for the potential global Halal

  • Arabic Music. It Began Something Like This : "The Arabs Are Very
    ARAP.IC MUSIC \\y I. AURA WILLIAMS man's consideratinn of Ininian affairs, his chief cinestions are, IN^ "\Miat of the frture?" and "What of the past?" History helps him to answer lioth. Dissatisfied with history the searching mind asks again, "And Ijcfore that, what?" The records of the careful digging of archeologists reveal, that many of the customs and hahits of the ancients are not so different in their essence from ours of today. We know that in man's rise from complete savagery, in his first fumblings toward civilization there was an impulse toward beauty and toward an expression of it. We know too, that his earliest expression was to dance to his own instinctive rhythms. I ater he sang. Still later he made instruments to accompany his dancing and his singing. At first he made pictures of his dancing and his instruments. Later he wrote about the danc- ing and his instruments. Later he wrote about the dancing and sing- ing and the music. Men have uncovered many of his pictures and his writings. From the pictures we can see what the instruments were like. We can, perhaps, reconstruct them or similar ones and hear the (luality of sound which they supplied. But no deciphering of the writings has yet disclosed to rs what combinations or sequences of sounds were used, nor what accents marked his rhythms. While one man is digging in the earth to turn up what records he may find of man's life "before that," another is studying those races who today are living in similar primitive circumstances.

  • Human Rights of Women Wearing the Veil in Western Europe
    Human Rights of Women Wearing the Veil in Western Europe Research Paper I. Introduction The present paper analyses legislation, policies, and case-law surrounding religious attire in a number of countries in Western Europe and how they affect the human rights of women and girls who wear the veil in Western Europe. It also more broadly analyses discrimination and violence experienced by women wearing the veil in Europe learning from their own voice. Throughout the paper, the terminology ‘veil’ is used to refer to a variety of religious attire worn mostly, but not exclusively, by Muslim women. There are different types of clothing that cover the body. This research is focused on manifestations of veils that are the subject of regulation in several Western European Countries. They include the hijab (a piece of clothing that covers the head and neck, but not the face), niqab (a piece of clothing that covers the face, where only the eyes are visible), burqa (a piece of clothing that covers both the face and eyes), jilbab (a loose piece of clothing that covers the body from head to toe), or abaya, kaftan, kebaya (a loose, often black, full body cover overcoat). The head and body covers are often combined. In several countries, some of these clothing are based on traditional costumes rather than religion and are often worn by rural communities in the countries of origins. The paper also uses the terminology ‘full-face veil’ or ‘face-covering veil’ to refer to both niqab and burqa. Furthermore, it refers to burkini, a swimsuit that covers the body from head to ankles, completed by a dress.

  • Faith in Equality: Religion & Belief in Europe
    The Equinet Report ‘Faith in Equality: Religion and Belief in Europe’ highlights recent legal developments that have taken place in the field of discrimination based on religion and belief. LEGAL FRAMEWORK EU protection against discrimination on the grounds of religion and belief is incomplete. EU law specifically prohibits differential treatment based on religion only in the area of employment (including vocational training). This gap would be covered by adopting the Horizontal Directive, proposed in 2008. EMPLOYMENT Discrimination cases have been identified in areas such as recruitment and selection; headgear and religious symbols; religious harassment in the workplace; justified occupational requirement; opting out of certain work tasks; work patterns; and conflicts of rights. EDUCATION Consistent with the trend shown in our 2011 report, a majority of the cases reported to equality bodies across the EU which deal with religious freedom in education are connected to the Muslim religion, particularly with Muslim women’s dress. GOODS & SERVICES In relation to religious discrimination in the provision of goods and services, justifications for discriminatory behaviour towards certain religious groups have to be examined thoroughly, be they health and safety concerns, the need to maintain security or the aim of enhancing integration. MANIFESTING RELIGION & BELIEF IN PUBLIC Although the full-face veil and the burkini are not comparable, they are both the subject of the will of politicians to legislate against forms of religious garments. Our report finds that the European Court of Human Rights' ‘living together’ argument for a blanket ban on the full-face veil does not sufficiently delineate what it means in respect of restricting fundamental rights, including the right to freedom of religion.
