Islamic social financing

Research Islamic social finance is considered one of the most important effective means to contribute to economic empowerment in light of the suffering of Islamic communities from poverty and unemployment, with its diversity of methods, whether it is charitable financing (non-profit) through financing with good loans, Zakat, and Waqf, or modest-profit financing through financing with exchange and participation. In this context, this book aims to explore Islamic social finance, regarding its concept, characteristics, importance, objectives, methods, and risks. It also examines its ability to provide the necessary funding for micro, small projects for marginalized, needy, and unemployed groups, as well as equipping them with knowledge, values, and skills that qualify them to work, achieve self-sufficiency, and ensure their material and psychological stability. Consequently, it helps them move from the circle of need and dependence on others to the circle of sufficiency and self-reliance, and from dependence on society to the circle of contribution to sustainable development, while also actively contributing to achieving financial inclusion goals.
