Abstract

Extract: Islamic securities are specially tailored financial products that conform
to a given set of legal-common-law-based {shari'ah) financial transaction
principles, which are deemed strictly applied when designing financial con¬
tracting terms covering such products. These principles arc quite different
from those used in the design of conventional securities. The principles
guiding the design of these securities evolved over some two and a half
centuries without reference to such doctrine-based principles as are applied
in designing Islamic financial products in historical times.
