Shariáh standards for islamic banking

 The foundation of the Islamic finance industry is the adherence to and compliance with, the guidelines and standards of Shariah ruling on the area of commerce and economics, with the wider shared thinking by prominent Shari’ah scholars and jurists, and centred on evidences found in the Qur'an and the Sunnah.

Taking this into consideration, the AAOIFI has formed the Shari’ah Board in 1419 A.H. (corresponding to 1999 A.D.) which is composed of Shari’ah scholars versed with Fiqh al-Mua’amalat (Islamic commercial and financial jurisprudence), especially in the area of Islamic banking.

Accordingly, it has managed to issue more than 54 standards that covers a wide range of Shari’ah rules relating to financial transactions of Islamic financial institutions (IFIs) in order to

  Provide a reference for Islamic banks and financial institutions

  To comply with Shari’ah in their transactions and products and

  To harmonize various Fatwas issued by different Shari’ah Supervisory Boards (SSBs).

In such manner, the Shari'ah Standards had become the significant gathering of contemporary Fiqh al-Mu'amalat (that is, Jurisprudence of Financial Transactions) around the planet. The guidelines cover a huge exhibit of Islamic monetary agreements and items, including those relating to banking, Islamic protection, venture banking, capital business sectors, financing, etc.

These standards are considered the most remarkable Shari'ah reference for this industry and its different partners, including administrative bodies, administrative specialists, and monetary foundations, and other expert substances, for example, law offices, bookkeeping and consultancy firms, notwithstanding colleges, scholastic organizations and examination focuses and Fatwa giving bodies; and particularly, become a fundamental piece of scholarly educational programs in colleges, universities and schools offering training on Islamic banking.

Today, the Shari’ah Standards are formally received by various national banks and monetary experts on a required premise or as direction. Consequently, these norms are seen as a significant trademark for the Islamic account industry and one of its central achievements.
