Islamic finance has emerged as a significant force in global trade and investment, providing ethical and sustainable solutions aligned with Sharia principles. By avoiding interest (Riba), uncertainty (Gharar), and speculative practices (Maisir), Islamic financial instruments promote fairness, risk-sharing, and transparency. Tools like Murabaha, Ijara, and Sukuk have enabled businesses and investors to engage in global markets while adhering to Islamic guidelines.
