Individuals as well as public and private institutions can hardly operate without the institution of banking. Modern banking operations are primarily interest centric. Banks receive money and lend it on interest. This is prohibited in Islam. Since interest permeates all the operations of the banking system the whole banking system is repugnant to Muslims.Islamic banking as an alternative to the Western capitalist banking system prohibits any kind of speculation interest and immoral investments (e.g. casinos), Islamic banks have to make a profit. They do this by buying assets on behalf of the customer who has to repay the loan and a fee for using the asset. When the loan is paid off the assets ownership is transferred to the borrower. The advantage of this arrangement is that the bank shares not only the profit but the risk as well. For this reason it gets the opportunity to have a close look at the potential borrowers. This book deals with conceptual theoretical and empirical framework of Islamic banking system. It also provides a performance review of Islamic banks in global perspective. More importantly it explains and examines the practices of Islamic banking in India focusing on issues and constraints. Finally it suggests the need for establishment of Islamic banks in India and areas of further research in the subject. (jacket).…
