Islamic Finance

Theory & Practice

This book is the result of five years teaching of Islamic finance course to MBA Finance students. This book is written with a clear focus on learning of Islamic banking & finance by accounting, banking, business and finance students/professionals. Resources available, so for, on the subject have focused on the legal side and very negligible work is available on the financial front for a common user. This book is written in financial perspective and the author has focused upon financial impacts, generated by application of Islamic financial laws. However, a summary of Islamic commercial laws of each chapter has been provided. Author has adopted balance sheet method to inculcate the knowledge; hence, understanding of elementary balance sheet is recommended to get maximum out of this book. This book is divided into five parts. Part-1 presents an update on Islamic finance. Part two is about asset-backed financing provided by IFIs. It includes trading (selling) modes of financing including Murabaha, Salam and Istisna'a; it also includes Ijarah financing. At the start of part two, a summary of Shari'a rulings about sales is reported. Part three of the book deals with profit and loss sharing modes of financing including Musharaka, diminishing Musharaka and Mudaraba. A special section is devoted to discussing the causes of lesser application of Musharaka in operations of IFIs, in addition to Shari'a rulings and financial impact. Chapter seven is about Diminishing Musharaka; a form of gradually declining partnership between an IFI and clients; generally used to finance real estates. Under diminishing Musharaka, I have discussed the basic Shari'a rulings, Islamic house financing, comparative study of conventional and Islamic mortgages and installment calculation under different assumptions for house financing. Chapter eight is about Mudaraba. Under this scheme of financing, IFIs provide capital to financially weak but skilful people to do the business and share the outcome with IFIs. Part four is about deposits management. Part five of the book presents special topics in Islamic Finance. In this part areas of liquidity management and Islamic insurance are discussed. Under Islamic capital market two dedicated chapters have been included; each for equities and Sukuk. Chapter 12 is dedicated for Islamic insurance. The last chapter has focused on challenges to Islamic finance industry. The third edition is definitely the outcome of very encouraging response by the academic community to earlier editions. In this edition due attention has been given to present material in a reader-friendly mode in addition to a thorough review of content, exercises and figures. In this edition Islamic capital market is re-written by including separate chapters on equities and Sukuk. Also, a special chapter is devoted to Islamic insurance. Updated figures on the global volume of assets, regional shares, equity funds and Sukuk are also part of this edition. Also, more examples included in the text to make the concept clear. In appendix guidance for the establishment of Islamic bank and appointment of Shari'a advisor as provided by the local central bank is included. An increased number of true/false, multiple choice questions and mini cases are also forming part of updated edition. This book is useful for MBA/BBA students as a three credit hour course as well as for banking/finance students and practitioners of Islamic banking & finance. It is also useful for accounting & finance professionals, trainers in Islamic banking, regulators, investors, corporate managers and the general public, interested in understanding Islamic finance. I hope this book will serve its purpose through imparting knowledge of Islamic banking & finance among accounting, business and finance graduates as well as practitioners of Islamic financial system, investors and the general public.

Understanding and Using English Grammar

Understanding and Using English Grammar By Betty Schrampfer Azar

Understanding and Using English Grammar By Betty Schrampfer Azar

Symbolic Logic and Other Forms of Deductive Reasoning

This text does not presuppose any technical background in math or logic. The first seven chapters cover all the basic components of a first course in symbolic logic, including truth tables, rules for devising formal proofs of validity, multiple quantifiers, properties of relations, enthymemes, and identity. (One exception is that truth trees are not discussed.) The five operator symbols used are: (.) and, (v) or, ( ) not, and also if-then, represented by the sideways U and material equivalence represented by the triple line. There are also four chapters which can be studied without symbolic logic background. Chapter 8 is a study of 7 immediate inferences in Aristotelian logic using A, E, I, O type statements with a detailed proof concerning what existential assumptions are involved. Chapter 9 is a study of classic Boolean syllogism using Venn diagrams to show the validity or invalidity of syllogisms. Chapter 10 is a study of the type of probability problems that are deductive (example: having 2 aces in 5 cards drawn from a randomized deck of cards). Chapter 11 is a study of the types of problems that are often found on standardized tests where certain data are given, and then multiple-choice questions are given where the single correct answer is determined by the data. In the symbolic logic chapters, it is shown many times how putting English statements into symbolic notation reveals the complexity (and sometimes ambiguity) of natural language. Many examples are given of the usage of logic in everyday life, with statements to translate taken from musicals, legal documents, federal tax instructions, etc. Several sections involve arguments given in English, which must be translated into symbolic notation before proof of validity is given. Chapter 7 ends with a careful presentation of Richard's Paradox, challenging those who dismiss the problem because it is not strictly mathematical. The conclusion of this chapter is the most controversial part of the text. Richard's paradox is used to construct a valid symbolic logic proof that Cantor's procedure does not prove there are nondenumerable sets, with a challenge to the reader to identify and prove which premise of the argument is false. There are several uncommon features of the text. For example, there is a section where it is shown how the rules of logic are used in solving Sudoku puzzles. Another section challenges students to devise arguments (premises and conclusion) that can be solved in a certain number of steps (say 3) only by using a certain 3 rules, one time each (for example, Modus Ponens, Simplification, and Conjunction). In proofs of invalidity, if there are 10 simple statements (for example), there are 1024 possible combinations of truth values that the 10 statements can have. But the premises and conclusions are set up so that only 1 of these combinations will make all the premises true and the conclusion false - and this 1 way can be found by forced truth-value assignments, with no need to take options. Another unusual section of the text defines the five operator symbols as relations (for example, Cxy = x conjuncted with y is true), and then statements about the operators are given to determine whether the statements are true or false. To aid in deciding what sections to cover in a given course or time frame, certain sections are labeled "optional" as an indication that understanding these sections is not presupposed by later sections in the text. Although there are a ton of problems with answers in the text, any teacher using this text for a course can receive free of charge an answer book giving answers to all the problems not answered in the text, plus a few cases of additional problems not given in the text, also with answers. Send your request to [email protected], and you will be sent an answer key using your address at the school where you teach.

Wrong Side of History

America's Alliance with Islamic Terrorists

"Over 4 Million Innocent People Will Be Slaughtered If Assad Falls," Senator Richard Black describing the misguided efforts of the United State's crusade to take out President Bashar al Assad of Syria. What you will not hear in the media, which will be shared with you in this book, is that the United States has formed an unwritten alliance with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey to take out Assad, the president of Syria. These three regimes are some of the most brutal, oppressive regimes that have ever existed in human history. It is well documented that they all have brutal dictatorships with aggressively oppressive governments. Senator Richard Black has studied Syria every day for the past 7 years. With his experience in the Middle East, as well as his day to day studies, he felt compelled in 2014 to write a letter directly to President Assad. The complete details of that letter is included in this book along with Senator Black's own words as to why he wrote the letter and what he hoped would come out of it. Not long after the letter was sent, President Assad reached out to Senator Black and invited him to visit the country. Consequently, Black went on a 3-day visit to meet and to talk with President Assad directly in Syria. You will learn what happened during that trip to Syria and what Senator Black learned about the country and about both Bashar al Assad and his wife Asma Assad. You will also learn how and why tensions between Russia and the United States have escalated unnecessarily and have become very serious. Black shares the downward path NATO has been on for the last three decades; from a defensive peace coalition to a brutal organization that continues war for its own survival. This ebook includes the transcript from an interview with Senator Richard Black on Business Game Changers radio with Sarah Westall. It also includes additional content and documents, including Black's letter to President Assad.
