Islamic Business and Finance Series

Islamic Economics refers to financial aspects or monetary activities and processes, which adhere to Islamic standards and teachings. The Islamic Economic System relates to the hypothetical development of an economy whose individuals follow the Islamic faith. This book presents an interesting and timely narrative of the concepts of Islamic economics in the context of Islamic culture. Its purpose is to guide individuals and organizations towards a Shariah-based Islamic Economic System.It begins by introducing the Islamic Economic System; its historical origins are explained in the framework of the verses of the Holy Quran, and in light of the Shariah scholars and the philosophical thinkers of the mid-20th century. It discusses concepts such as the evolution of Islamic Fintech and Artificial Intelligence (AI); the relationship between Islamic corporate governance and Islamic Economics; the distribution of wealth in Islam; Islamic Social Finance; Islamic Economic practices in the banking industry, behavioural norms and moral foundations; and Islamic Economics in Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and non-OIC countries. The author emphasizes the principles that set Islamic economics apart from traditional systems, grounded in Shariah evidence and highlights the role of Islamic principles in promoting overall business success and ethical practices in the banking industry, offering comparative analysis between Islamic and conventional models, as well as economic systems. Drawing on a rich array of sources, including the Quran and interviews with renowned religious scholars, the book provides a well-rounded and thoroughly researched argument.This book will serve as a valuable resource for academics, scholars, researchers, and organizations seeking to navigate the complexities of an interest-free economic system guided by Islamic principles.

Cultural Context in a Global Economy

The Islamic Economic System

This book investigates the rise of Christian Zionism and philo-Semitism across the Global South, revealing a significant trend reshaping contemporary Christianity. In regions of Africa and Latin America, evangelical movements are increasingly engaging with Jewish rituals and Zionist political views, adapting Christian Zionism to fit diverse national aspirations and imagining national redemption through pro-Israel activism. While scholarly attention has traditionally focused on the movement's European origins and American strength, this groundbreaking collection challenges the narrative that Christian Zionism is merely an American export. It demonstrates how Christian communities in the Global South are not passively adopting but actively adapting and propagating Christian Zionist ideas in ways that reflect local contexts and aspirations. The volume reveals that what has recently come into controversial view represents only the tip of an iceberg whose true scale remains largely unappreciated. By examining the motivations and appropriations driving this phenomenon in new contexts, the collection offers a more globally representative perspective on a highly significant trend in twenty-first-century Christianity-one with profound implications for the Israel/Palestine conflict, global geopolitical stability, and unresolved dilemmas within the Christian tradition itself.The volume addresses religious studies, political theology, international relations, evangelical Christianity, postcolonial studies, and Middle Eastern politics. It will appeal to students, scholars of religion, political scientists, theologians, as well as policymakers and general readers seeking to understand the global dimensions of Christian Zionism and its impact on contemporary geopolitics.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Religion, State and Society.

Routledge Studies in Asian Religion and Philosophy

This volume argues for the pressing need to understand the role of religious beliefs, religious scholars, and religious centres in promoting welfare and social protection services for the strengthening of global social welfare systems.The book contributes to research around the integration of faith-based financing into global and local welfare strategies by looking at the Twelver Shia Muslims as a distinct group, presenting ethnographical analysis and interviews gathered from Twelver Shia community members and religious scholars. Chapters explore social welfare lessons learnt by the global Shia community, the level of awareness and commitment to mandatory and voluntary religious finances, (including Zakat, Khums, Waqf, and Sadaqat), and the fears and barriers to advancing faith-led social welfare efforts. The book ultimately presents contemporary realities from the Twelver Shia community, identifies gaps between teachings and practices for religious financing, and highlights internal community challenges around collective efforts for welfare development.The book will be of interest to scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students in the fields of sociology of religion, religion and economics, public policy, religious studies, and Islamic studies more broadly.

Twelver Shia Beliefs and Religious Financing for Social Welfare

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region is warming twice as fast as the global average. With summer temperatures already exceeding 50°C and desalination providing 90% of freshwater, climate change is an existential challenge.This book delves into the critical and timely issue of climate change and its far reaching impacts on the GCC. As one of the world’s most arid and energy intensive areas, the region faces unique challenges related to rising temperatures, water scarcity, and the need for a sustainable energy transition.This book provides the first comprehensive, data driven assessment of how GCC countries can turn their ambitious climate pledges into reality – balancing economic growth, water security, and energy transition. It critically evaluates the region’s climate commitments and their feasibility in achieving long term sustainability goals.Key features include:<ul><li>Comprehensive Analysis – A detailed examination of the interplay between climate change, environmental policies, and economic growth in the GCC.</li><li>Data Driven Insights – Incorporation of the latest statistics, tables, and case studies to provide a robust foundation.</li><li>Holistic Approach – Integration of environmental, economic, and policy perspectives for a balanced, interdisciplinary view.</li><li>Innovative Solutions – Focus on emerging technologies and strategies addressing water, energy, and food security.</li></ul>This book is an essential resource for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the path toward climate resilience and sustainable development in the GCC. With accessible language and actionable insights, it bridges the gap between technical expertise and real world application.

Women, Power, and Gender in the Middle East examines the mechanisms through which gendered authority is both enforced and contested within evolving structures of governance, addressing a central question: how are women's rights shaped, constrained, and negotiated under conditions of political instability, authoritarian reform, and state fragmentation?The volume covers Turkey, Iran, the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, North and East Syria (Rojava), the United Arab Emirates, and the Maghreb. Drawing on qualitative interviews, field research, legal and policy analysis, and feminist political theory, contributors analyse a range of issues, including honour-based violence, women's movements, state-led reform, the Women, Peace and Security agenda, the Iranian MeToo mobilisation, reproductive labour and surrogacy, and processes of racialisation and individuation. The volume moves beyond reductive culturalist explanations of gender, conceptualising gendered violence, reform, and mobilisation as interrelated dimensions of governance and political transformation. By bringing together grassroots activism, institutional change, and everyday regulatory practices within a unified analytical framework, the book advances a more nuanced understanding of how gender is constituted in relation to state power and authority.This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students of gender studies and Middle East studies, as well as for policymakers and practitioners seeking rigorous, empirically grounded insight into the intersection of governance and gender in contemporary regional politics.Chapter 7 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

A moving and haunting &nbsp;portrait of a Palestinian immigrant's heroic efforts to heal his community and birth love from tragedy'A heartbreaking and thrillingly suspenseful story about tragic histories and new beginnings.'&nbsp;Jenny Offill, author of Weather'Deeply absorbing and passionately felt' Irish Times'This is one of those rare stories that feels at once universal and impossibly strange, rooted in the ordinary challenges of the American Dream but lashed to horrors unfolding on the other side of the planet.' Washington PostIn Naeem Murr's first novel in two decades, the conflicts, griefs, and hopes of a community of diverse immigrants in a Chicago condominium come to represent those of the wounded world we all must share.As the financial crisis of the late Noughties looms, all that anyone truly knows about Jamal 'Jack' Shaban is how readily he sacrifices himself in his attempts to broker peace between his embittered neighbors. For his flight attendant colleagues, he is an object of desire, even love, particularly for his sweetly bawdy Wisconsinite best friend, Birdy. Believing that Jack is gay, Birdy knows nothing of Dimra, Jack's traditional Muslim wife, with whom Jack is desperate to have a child. Nor isDimra aware of Jack's attraction to Marcia: an angry single mother new to the building. The resulting tangle of conflict, love and desire returns Jack to the violence of 1980s Gaza, where a love affair led him to exile and nearly destroyed his life.A man of many faces - adulterer, devoted husband, fixer, community leader, liar, and the survivor of human and cosmic cruelty in both the past and present - Jack is a paragon of both desire and hope, someone who has committed to love because the alternative is darkness. Weaving poignant tragedy and bittersweet comedy, a tale of one man's blasted hopes and indomitable dedication to the well-being of others, this is a book to love, reread and remember.'Timely and urgent, EveryExit Brings You Home explores Jack's hopes, sorrows, and regrets-and, by proxy, those of immigrants everywhere.'

Every Exit Brings You Home

A human history of one of the planet’s most iconic lakes, and the civilizations that surrounded its shores &nbsp; The Dead Sea is a place of many contradictions. Hot springs around the lake are famed for their healing properties, though its own waters are deadly to most lifeforms—even so, civilizations have built ancient cities and hilltop fortresses around its shores for centuries. The protagonists in its story are not only Jews and Arabs, but also Greeks, Nabataeans, Romans, Crusaders and Mamluks. Today it has become a tourist hotspot, but its drying basin is increasingly under threat. &nbsp; In this panoramic account, Nir Arielli explores the history of the Dead Sea from the first Neolithic settlements to the present day. Moving through the ages, Arielli reveals the religious, economic, military, and scientific importance of the lake, which has been both a source of great wealth and a site of war. The Dead Sea weaves together a tapestry of the lake’s human stories—and amidst environmental degradation and renewed conflict, makes a powerful case for why it should be saved.

FINALIST FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 2026'Remarkable' GUARDIAN'Anyone disturbed and frightened by our current moral and intellectual morass should read it' PANKAJ MISHRAA leading genocide scholar explores the history of Zionism, Israel's lurch towards extreme oppression and violence, and why it stands accused of crimes against humanityProfessor Omer Bartov was born on a kibbutz, grew up in Tel Aviv and served in the Israel Defence Forces during the Yom Kippur War. He went on to become an expert on the German army and the Holocaust, before turning his attention to his native country.In Israel: What Went Wrong?, Bartov explores the transformation of Zionism from a movement of Jewish emancipation and liberation into a state ideology of ethno-nationalism, exclusion and violent domination of Palestinians. He traces the process whereby Israel - whose establishment in 1948 received international support in the aftermath of the Holocaust - now faces accusations of war crimes and genocide.What are the implications of Israel's near total impunity for the post-1945 regime of international law? And how do we understand the widespread support for these policies by Israel's Jewish citizens?The result is a searing and urgent critique that addresses today's debates over Zionism, genocide, and the future of Israel with rigour and depth.

Israel: What Went Wrong?

Aktivismus- und Propagandaforschung

Das Buch untersucht mittels eines innovativen Mixed-Methods-Designs die Zusammenhänge und Schnittstellen zwischen Esoterik, sogenannten alternativen Heilmethoden und (rechten) Verschwörungsnarrativen. Hierzu werden zunächst historische und theoretische Einordnungen der Diskursstränge vorgenommen, auf deren Basis eine hermeneutische Begriffsarbeit erfolgt. Anschließend werden quantitative Netzwerkanalysen auf Twitter und Telegram mit qualitativen Inhaltsanalysen aus diskursanalytischer Perspektive verknüpft.
 
 Hierdurch werden Einblicke in konspirituell-alternativmedizinische Diskursräume ermöglicht, sowie ideologische und historische Kontinuitäten herausgearbeitet. Diese Ergebnisse werden anschließend an Diskurse um Biopolitik, Autoritarismus und eugenische Vorstellungen zurückgebunden. Die Autorin gibt somit Einblick in konspirituell-alternativmedizinische Diskurse im Kontext der Covid-19-Pandemie und darüber hinaus.
