Published 2 months ago • 1 min read

Salam Reader,

Here's what we're serving this week:

  • 🥗 Starter: How 'conventional finance' was enforced across the Muslim-majority world
  • 🍔 Main Course: The story of a PhD that sparked a $2 Trillion Industry
  • 🍰 Dessert: A hadith on the station of a trustworthy business person

Starter 🥗

Main Course 🍔

“The PhD That Birthed a $2 Trillion Islamic Finance Industry” is the first of a two‑part series. Part 2 will review Servus Credit Union’s new halal home‑financing option in Alberta.

I hope you enjoy reading this article as much as I enjoyed researching and writing it.

If nothing else, pass it along to a graduate student you know. Tell them you’re expecting their research to produce similar results. 😉

Dessert 🍰

"The honest and trustworthy business person will be with the Prophets, the truthful, and the martyrs."

 

Sunan al‑Tirmidhi
