Foundation Certificate in Islamic Business & Finance and Mu'amalat Studies
Part one of the HIGHER CERTIFICATE IN MU'AMALAT STUDIES course
Let us not forget that alongside the mosque in Madina the Prophet, peace be upon him, built the marketplace. This is significant!
For Muslims what is in this course should be commonplace knowledge and practice, unfortunately it is not. For the non-Muslim this gives a glimpse of what Islam and Muslims really have to offer.
As society and the financial system spiral out of control it's time to bring forward a new understanding of financial and commercial justice and free & fair trade. Of course upon inspection we will see that it is really an old or traditional understanding. For there have always been wealthy Muslims in almost every community who pay their zakat, give sadaqa and establish awqaf. If Allah wills, this course will help you in both, becoming one of those people and/or who encourage and facilitate that amongst others.
