Certification in Islamic MicroFinance

This program aims to provide the participants with a comprehensive understanding of the building blocks of a microfinance program targeted at Islamic societies. It asserts that there are no fundamental contradictions in the objectives of global microfinance programs and of the glorious Islamic Shariah, though the methodology of latter may have certain distinct characteristics. The program seeks to present the Islamic approach as a composite and compassionate one that is rooted in charity, but permits wealth creation and for-profit enterprise. We focus on the mechanisms, models, tools and instruments of the Islamic approach as prescribed by the glorious Shariah.
