Abstract

We begin by giving a summary of the main points. The book is chiefly concerned with prohibitory rules unanimously acknowledged in principle by all Muslims i.e. riba (unlawful advantage by way of excess or deferment) and gharar (uncertainty, risk and speculation). It is also concerned with interest-free banking and mudarabah (commenda partnership). The subject of the book is law not economics.
