Amazon.com description: Product Description:
From its origins in the seventh century, Islamic finance has sought to develop core ethical principles that are based in the foundations of Islam and Shariâa. By engaging critically with the complexities of international finance, it has evolved and adapted into a world emerging from the economic and moral aftermath of a global financial crisis. But with an increasing Western interest, is it able to remain true to the principles of its faith? Can it maintain its ideals of social jusÂtice? Or is Islamic finance guilty of the very dangers it seeks to avoid?
 In Heavenâs Bankers, Harris Irfan, one of the worldâs leading Islamic finance bankers, gives unparalleled insight into the heart of this secretive industry. From his personal exÂperience of working with leading bankers, scholars and lawÂyers, he debunks the myths of Islamic banking, analyzes its greatest deals and looks to the future of a system that has reprioritized the very nature of money itself.

Even in the West, Islamic finance is rapidly becoming an important alÂternative source of funding at a time when the conventional finance industry is reeling from the effects of the financial crisis.
