Islamic finance has witnessed a meteoric ascent in recent decades, cementing its status as a prominent player within the global financial sphere. Diverging from traditional financial systems, Islamic finance operates on the tenets of Shari''ah law, which emphasizes principles such as social equity, risk-sharing, and ethical investing. Although Islamic finance''s appeal is evident within the Muslim community, its ethical and socially responsible investment options have begun to entice non-Muslims as well.
