Definition of Islamic Economics According to Hasanuz Zaman,
‘Islamic economics is the knowledge and application of injunctions and rules of the Shariah (Islamic Principles) that prevent injustice in the acquisition and disposal of material resources in order to provide satisfaction to human beings and enable them to perform their obligations to Allah (God) and society’.
It is economics that is governed by Islamic rules and principles which tend to achieve the well-being for individuals and society as a whole.
THE ECONOMIC ROLE OF THE STATEThe state in Islamic economics is committed to implementing and maintaining ethics in society. The state is responsible for :
• gathering Zakat and distributing it in favor of the needy. Also, it has to ban and prevent dealing with Riba among people and firms.
• supervising and controlling the market. It has equally to intervene in order to avoid monopoly and injury.
Islamic banking performs the same essential functions as banks do in the conventional system, except Islamic banks need to do business in accordance with the rules and principles of Islam.
It is based on interest free banking that conforms to the Islamic law or Shariah that prohibits interest on all types of loans. The principle is profit and loss sharing. Both the supplier of the capital and the borrower share the risk and both suffer together when returns are poor. Islamic banks will fit only if one replaces “interest rates paid” with “profit-shares and fees”.
Islamic banking operates in many countries including Bahrain, Pakistan, Jordan, Iran, Sudan, United Kingdom, Singapore and Malaysia. Over recent decades the Islamic banking industry
has emerged as one of the fastest growing industries and has spread to all corners of the globe, receiving wide acceptance from Muslims and non-Muslims.
There are three main reasons for prohibition of interest according.
1. Riba is unfair Traditional relationship between borrower and lender is on interest, borrower has chance to receive all the profit or the risk to face all the losses that occur, whereas lender earns money what so ever. 2. Riba is exploitative It is exploitative because favoring rich, as surplus of money and it force needy and poor to borrow. 3. Riba is unproductive Money should be used in economic ventures and contribute to the economy and enhance welfare.

Principals of Islamic Financial System1) Prohibition of Interest (RIBA)
“An excess” Any unjustifiable increase of capital whether are loans or sales in the central tenant of the system.
Islamic regulations encourage the earning of profit but forbid the charging of interest.
2) Money as a potential capital It joins hands with other resources to undertake a productive
activity.
3) Risk sharing When interest is prohibited, suppliers of fund become investors
instead of creditors. Investors & financial intermediary relationship is based on profit
& loss sharing principals.
3) Prohibition of speculative behavior Discouraging hoarding & prohibits transacting featuring extreme
uncertainties.4)Sanctity of contracts
Upholding contractual obligations & the disclosure as a sacred duty to reduce the risk of asymmetric information & moral hazard.
5)Sharing-approved activities Only activities that don’t violate the rules of shariah qualify for
investment. Any business Dealing with alcohol, gambling or casinos is
prohibited.6)Social justice
In Principle , any transaction leads to injustice & exploitation is prohibited.

its usufruct. Sukuk were used by Muslims in the Middle Ages as papers
representing financial obligations originating from trade and other commercial activities

Bonds indicate a debt obligation
The assets that back sukuk are compliant with Shariah
Assets backing bonds may include products or services that are against Islam.
