What is brand Image? Both the topics independently have been researched, discussed and deliberated so many times that the readers generally don’t fancy reading them. However, there is not a single research to best of our knowledge wherein researchers may have combined both the diversified topics. Lack of research on “brand image of Islamic bank” was one of the major motivator for undertaking this research. Thus the objective of this paper was to measure the brand image of Islamic banks, and develop the profile of the customers of Islamic banks. 1.1.0 Literature Survey In order to develop the conceptual background, the literature review has been structured as follows: 1.1.2 A brief over view on Islamic banking and literature on consumer behavior, characteristics and perception towards Shariah banks A brief overview of branding imaging concept An Overview Islamic Banking There are about 270 Islamic banks around the world (including subsidiaries...

...in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Osama had his primary, secondary and even university education in Jeddah. He had a degree in public administration 1981 from King Abdul-Aziz University in Jeddah. At secondary school and university he adopted the main trend of many educated Muslims at that time, Muslim Brotherhood. There was a collection of Muslim scholars in Jeddah and Mecca at that period. There was nothing extraordinary in his personality and that trend was rather very non-confrontational. He was killed May 2, 2011 by a small group of U.S. Forces, including Navy Seals that raided a high wall, and fortified compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. Osama was married 6 times, and he had 24 children. He was the founder of al-Qaeda; a broad-based militant Islamist organization. Al-Qaeda began as a logistical network to support Muslims fighting against the Soviet Union during the Afghan war. When the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan in 1989, the organization dispersed but continued to oppose what its leaders considered corrupt Islamic regimes, and foreign presence in Islamic lands. Bin Laden returned to Saudi Arabia to step up fundraising for this new and more complicated mission. This led to the Iraqi Invasion of Kuwait, which was Saddam Hussein’s idea. Then, adding insult to injury, they sought help from the “infidel” U.S. instead. Furious about being snubbed, bin Laden vowed that it was al-Qaeda, and not the Americans, who would one day prove to be “master of this world.” Iraq maintained...

Nation is still to be built and threats are still there since we were born. It is still in discussion if it had to be an Islamic country or a secular. No matter what foundation its founders wanted it to lie on; we lack a lot in every field. Religious institution is weaker than ever and financial crisis is following us since we were born, haunting our future.

...PROHIBITION OF RIBA FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF FOUR MAIN SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT Introduction In the comprehensive and restrictive meaning, riba is defined as “any increment incurred upon specific ribawi (usurious) items originated either from debt or trading transactions”. Apart from its literal meaning of “increase”, classical Islamic scholars such as Ibn Arabi, Mujahid and Tabari interpreted riba as an ‘increase without wealth (mal) attached to it’, or as ‘compensation for waiting’ or ‘increase of amount owing to the lenders due to the deferment of payment resulted from extension of original loan tenure’. Such interpretation encompasses riba from debt transaction (i.e. riba ad-duyun) as well as riba from trading of the six ribawi items (i.e. riba al buyu’). The prohibition of riba appears in Al-Quran in four different revelations. The first of these is in Surah Ar-Rum ayyat 39 which emphasized on moral denunciation for those who gives riba and commendation for those who contribute tithe (zakat). The second revelation is in Surah An-Nisa ayyat 161 concerning riba and the Jews. It severely condemned the Jews who took riba despite they were forbidden to do so. The third revelation in Surah Ali Imran ayyat 130 enjoined the Muslims to keep away themselves from riba and the fourth revelation in Surah Al-Baqarah ayyat 275-278 delineate the strong verdict against riba especially the two excerpts from ayyat 275 which stated that “Those who devour riba will not stand except as one...

...disclosure by Islamic banks: evidence from Gulf Cooperation Council countries Abdullah Awadh Bukair and Azhar Abdul Rahman Abstract Corporate social activities have become major subjects because of their effects on the quality life of citizens, in particular, and on the society at large. Therefore, today, there is an increase awareness of social responsibility due to the challenges meeting the financial institutions (particularly, Islamic banking) around the world. This paper examines the influence of the board of directors’ characteristics, consisting of board size, board composition, and the separation roles of CEO and chairman, on corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure in 53 annual reports of Islamic banks of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries after controlling of bank size, financial performance and relevant public. Based on the framework of legitimacy theory, the findings show that CSR disclosure has a negative and insignificant relationship with board composition. On contrast, the study found insignificantly and positive association between CSR disclosure and other characteristics of board of directors (board size and the separation roles of CEO and chairman). With regards control variables, the study indicates that bank size and financial performance have a positive and significant influence on CSR disclosure, while relevant public has no effect. Therefore, the results indicate that corporate governance structure of board of directors within Islamic banks of...
